I was so excited to watch this special and Maija did not disappoint. Her innate ability to connect with an audience was never more point. Maija brought the edge of NYC and the passion of the small neighborhoods in Brooklyn to this seemingly homogeneous crowd in Utah in a colorful and personal way. She danced between self deprecating humor and mocking the crowd in a non threatening and inclusive way. Maija's endearing stage presence and audience rapport aside, the jokes themselves were smart, well crafted but most importantly really funny. I absolutely loved this special however the lovebirds joke will forever be my favorite.
