Erin Rodgers's story of her first year after coming out as bisexual is one for the underdogs.

• Winnipeg Fringe 2017: read our reviews

With understated self-deprecating charm, she tells us about the summer she decided to get "tough" by learning to ride a bike and finally asking a girl out.

It's not really the most dynamic story, and Rodgers's performance is uneven in spots, as are her jokes some are great little observational bits, some fall flat.

A sweet story about not feeling good enough and coming out tougher on the other side.- Joff Schmidt

But in spite of that or maybe because of it we root for her by the end. This is a sweet story about going through not feeling good enough or cool enough and coming out tougher on the other side.
Tough not to like that.
