Put on your seatbelt. You’re about to go on a powerful ride! From the moment TL enters the stage, she has you hooked. With incredible power and vulnerability, sprinkled with sass and spice, we are taken on a journey of what most of us never have or will experience. Except for that we have. Although TL’s circumstances are different, the lived experience is universal; that of not feeling enough. And with TL’s story, we also learn (more) and get to understand about the deaf culture that most of... full review

A masterpiece of solo theatre, showing that you don't need bells and whistles. This show is so well crafted and meticulously executed. The only prop used is a chair on stage. The rest is brilliantly mimed by Jen, and we get all of it. Jen is a very smart writer and performer, knowing exactly how and when to bring the audience certain places. Highly recommend you see this!... full review

A beautiful story about the bond between a granddaughter and grandmother, showing us that life can begin and begin again, no matter the age. Vee Kumari and Sanchita Malik are excellent in their portrayals of Padma and Libby. Malik shines with her beautiful vulnerability on stage, as she addresses the audience quite a bit and invites us further in to the story. Kumari entertains with her natural comedic skill and glimmers with playfulness. The play runs just over 30mins which makes it the perf... full review

A beautiful story full of soul and faith, told with vulnerability and charm. Rick bares some dark things after taking us on a journey, coaching us on the game of lacrosse. But it’s more than that. And also none of that. What is taught in the game; what you bring, is what you bring to life. “I coach life and we take life on to the field”. I found myself getting immersed in it all, even at moments I thought I might not. Rick’s New Yorker, seemingly “cool tough guy” draws you in with charm a... full review

Wonderful and powerful! A very relevant piece of theatre that I wish I would have seen when I was a teenager. It would have helped me and probably even saved some. This play deals with body image issues in a world where we are never enough the way we are. Three actors play the same person and I love that. It was so greatly done and performed. ... full review
