My overall impression
First let me say, as an “over 50” female myself, I’m always interested in hearing other “mature” women’s stories (not enough of that in this world, IMHO). Also, I was intrigued by the show’s description and wondered what kind of story we might “hear.” I was surprised and challenged by Rosen’s bio-play. Her’s is a most unusual and utterly unique journey of finding her own voice—literally and poetically. I loved the artful spareness of her staging and, as the story unfolded, I kept wondering “how did this fascinating female artist emerge from this incredible story?”—a personal story that would either utterly debilitate a woman, or force her to push out and become very much her own person with a completely unique POV. Thankfully, Rosen’s journey appears to be the latter. Brava.
