"Breathtaking. I was captivated by the stories and haunted by memories of the women in my family at the same time. A must see. I can't wait to see another show and take my daughter."

"The performance was moving, heartfelt and intense...it kept my interest
throughout! I could relate to bits and pieces of the performances that
provoked thought and pleasant memories of the ones I love. And the
performers' strength was inspiring not only physically, but emotionally and
psychologically as well .
-Julie Dean

Explores universal themes in innovative ways.
Extremely artistic.
Comedic, heart-wrenching and everything in between.
The show takes the time to treat the subjects it explores in a meaningful way ... I hope this show gets the wide viewing that it deserves.
