The Iditarod

The Iditarod by Maria Gnoza is a story that explores guilt, growing up, independence, grief, and acceptance told creatively through character interaction, storytelling, performance art, and audience participation. I thought this show had incredible things to say about how we process guilt as we grow up, and conversely how we can refuse to process guilt. It is a show that will stick with me for a long time.... full review

This is a unique, engaging show with a performer who radiates charm at every moment, shifting effortlessly from character to character, from comedy to poignancy, from total involvement with her imaginary world to raucous interaction with her audience. Home movies and various video assists aid in the creation of a satisfying and memorable solo outing.... full review
