JAN HOAG certified reviewer June 11, 2018
What a stunning array of characters Kathryn Smith portrays in her current solo Fringe Festival show at The Lounge Theater. A must see in my opinion. The subject of homelessness in LA and countless other US cities is such a hot button issue at present. Kathryn offers important social comment while encountering several characters who inhabit her life on the streets. Kathryn is realistic, poignant, funny, and revelatory in her observations. Two more perfs!!! Catch it if you can, you'll love it!!!... full review

Bravo! Kathryn Taylor Smith does an outstanding job of bringing awareness of homelessness in LA through a myriad of characters woven together beautifully! She morphes seamlessly from one character to the next evoking laughter, sighs and “Amens” throughout the show. Her performance really causes you to look within and outwards as you slowly begin to realize that our comparisons far outway our differences. I look forward to seeing even more developments and discussions that arise from works like this. We are all human and one decision away from our destiny. Please do check this show out if you get a chance. It’s food for the soul!... full review

Kat you really did a amazing job. Dee and I both feel like we learned so much more about you and various aspects of our communities involving homeless individuals and families. We will forever look at homelessness different and understand the power of what the change in our pockets can change in life’s. Thank you for sharing your deepest emotions and thoughts with conviction and compassion. ... full review

I truly enjoyed this heart-warming show. Kathryn took very serious subjects related to homelessness reflected by various characters and added just enough humor to keep us interested and entertained. I wish my church members could see it since we are adding Skid Row as a campus to our ministries.... full review
TENE CARTER certified reviewer June 20, 2018
Kathryn Taylor Smith under the direction of Zadia Ife brings the actual, true to life experiences of the homeless and the effects on the community. We each get to walk, “A Mile in their Shoes,” and take their journeys, so brilliantly expressed through Kathryn Taylor Smith’s portrayal of each character.... full review

What an incredible show with an poignant message. Kathryn did an amazing job of opening our eyes to the issue of homeless people and showcasing the humanity of each character. Everything was so good. The use of music, her movement and dance piece was powerful, the projections didn't feel unnecessary and never took away from Kathryn because she commands the stage like no other! Her versatility as an actor is incredible and her writing skills are just as strong. Congrats, girlie!!! ... full review
