WHAT PEOPLE SAY
AUDIENCE VIEWER
I was thinking this was going to be mediocre and amateurish. It was anything but. . .The singing was excellent, the choreography brilliant, the acting seamless and professional, and the topic real and insightful. . .I honestly cannot recommend this enough.
FRINGE REVIEWER
This show stopped me in my tracks. I've never seen anything like it. . . It makes the truth of our times more apparent.
FRINGE REVIEWER
Real, honest, and strong. It showed that women's lives, joys and trials are the same through the ages. Choreography and singing were beautiful. Very inspiring and sometimes shocking revelations in familiar stories. Wonderful.
Edinburgische Dramaturgie
Sincerity is rarely this theatrically potent, but the stories from the ensemble find both relief and challenges in the texts. . .Moving and determinedly contemporary, it is intellectually bracing and emotionally rich.
