Jenny Slate: Stage Fright Reviews
Paste Magazine
Clare Martin
[Jenny] Slate commits from head to toe, which is to say that she moves like one of those inflatable advertising tubes outside of a car dealership. Her exaggerated physicality is matched only by her buzzing, infectious enthusiasm.
AV Club
Brianna Wellen
Where some textbook comedy specials fall flat because of over-rehearsed jokes or stiffness, Stage Fright succeeds because it oozes authenticity, thanks in part to a combination of Slate's overwhelming joy and a display of deep vulnerability
Collider
Gregory Lawrence
I appreciated and related to Slate's honesty in these moments, and found Robespierre's choice to save them 'til the backend to be subtly powerful - the medicine hits harder because of the sugar we've been fed before.
The Daily Dot
Audra Schroeder
Slate-like so many women-has more than one self, and she shows us a few of them in Stage Fright.
Bitch Media
Noa Azulai
These moments of tenderness are a reminder that even amidst the chaos of today, there is joy, and thus power, in the ones you love, in your moments of faith or embarrassment, in your community, in your sexuality.
Pajiba
Kristy Puchko
Jenny Slate: Stage Fright is funny, fearless, and phenomenal. It's a must-see that may make you feel seen. And if not, may still make you cackle like its charismatic comedian. Don't miss it.
New Yorker
Rachel Syme
I can think of no better way to describe Stage Fright than as a secret, gentle, creamy treat for those who love and think deeply about clothing.
The Ringer
Alison Herman
In her willingness to invite others into her romantic, family, and interior lives, Slate gives the distinct impression she's not performing at all.
Entertainment Weekly
David Canfield
Stage Fright features plenty of the proudly feminist and wildly silly material that fans should expect, but as Slate reflects on her coming of age and ongoing struggles with love and happiness, she doesn't leave everything on stage.
Salon.com
Ashlie D. Stevens
What Stage Fright lacks in polish, it makes up for in effervescence and deeply confessional moments.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Kathryn VanArendonk
In spite of my reservations, though, the final leg of Slate's stand-up does feel like a sum that's doing its best to capitalize on all of the hour's many parts.
Pop Culture Leftovers
Brooke Daugherty
Jenny Slate is candid, genuine and endearing in her first stand-up special for Netflix. The standard special is elevated by home videos and documentary style vignettes.
Decider
Sean L. McCarthy
Slate gives us her all, and all of her, here. It's almost impossible not to fall for her.
