What I liked

Although the puppetry was beautiful, it is Harley’s acting and writing that is the stand-out here. Her story of her relationship with her grandmother and her mother brought a tear to my eye (seriously), and also was very funny. A one-person show that takes you on an emotional journey with her – with puppetry!

What I didn't like

The story with her Mom is painful for her to share, but some more specifics might help make it clearer for the audience.

My overall impression

Incredibly charming, heartwarming, shadow-puppet show. This is a must-see!
