This show is absolutely fantastic. A must-see highlight of the 2024 Fringe. The music, the storytelling, the singing, the staging--this is the new bar for future fringe shows here in LA!... full review

This show habits a dimension of its own. Bethany has the most beautiful voice and the story is intricate and amazing.... full review

The best produced, most polished and professional show I saw at the festival. This show was a masterclass for me on a new way to write a solo show involving music. I walked away really, really inspired! ... full review

World-class singing of incredible and rarely-heard music. Bethany reframes and reinvents the sublime music of Barbara Strozzi, threading it through her story. A truly creative and immersive experience.... full review

This show was masterfully woven and beautifully executed. Bethany’s voice and presence is equally angelic as is it grounded and ambitious. One voice embodies several important figures intertwined with Hill’s own life. Her own music and poetry are amplified by the work of a misunderstood 17th century musician. Hill’s reverberating desire of liberation reaches back in time to give gratitude, acknowledgment and creative nourishment to women who paved the way to her own artistry. ... full review

Blown away. Bethany Hill’s performance is engaging from start to finish — vulnerable and beautiful. Up there on her own for 80 minutes that go by in a snap, playing multiple instruments (some I’d never before seen), looping live, her original songs and incredible voice, all while telling the autobiographical journey of how she left a life of shame behind and came to be here in front of us with all this skill and bravery. Staged and shaped elegantly by herself and director Alek Lev. A must see Fringe show that will hopefully have a full run of its own in the near future.... full review

A solo show that weaves in opera, instrument playing, and monologues to tell the stories of women across time. ... full review

An intimate and emotionally moving piece with several truly breathtaking moments . . . the kind I go to the theater hoping to experience but rarely get. Soulful, innovative, masterful storytelling. A vulnerable baring of intergenerational scars done with grace and wry humor.... full review
