What I liked

They felt like girls. Gillian captured the truth of how girls talked to each other… And I’m a man who has no idea what girls talking is like.

What I didn't like

Bigger theater more audience a generous patron who will put this play on in stages across the country!

My overall impression

Girl blood is a titan of a show about some of the most tender and important moments of girlhood. I have not seen as complete of a show as this in a long time. From the direction, to the acting, to the writing, to the design, nothing was out of place. The free flowing vignettes chronicling the growth of these girls breaks hearts and captures the soul. I cannot emphasize how’s satisfying the dialogue feels, everything is understood and said in the only way it can, no more no less. I ask smitten by the details. The way the stage becomes a round. How characters crossing the stage can feel so important in a fleeting moment. Bravo Zanni!
