What I liked

Harley’s growth story is beautiful and inspiring. I loved hearing Grandma’s actually voice.

What I didn't like

I disagree with sharing notes on your work online, but this is mostly a brag: The show I went to was SO PACKED I sat in the back and couldn’t see the stuff that was closer to the floor! Can you be less popular so I can see the floor stuff please!?!?!?

My overall impression

This is a show about love. The show oozes it. Harley transports you into her Grandmother’s backyard in Tennessee, where she uses her subtle, beautiful shadow puppetry to regale you with tales that tell her story in a heart-warming way.
