What I liked

I throughly enjoyed how the most famous women of literary time were reinvigorated in modern day empowerment and intertwined with modern day issues . Loved how Dana Beardsley incorporates
current trends such as marriage counseling to Shakespeares former silenced women .
Each act was identifiable to the individual audience member. .
I found the actors exceptional! Hope to see this play on a bigger stage one day !

What I didn't like

Parking is challenging – so get there early !

My overall impression

I have been following Dana Beardsley Crotwell for many years. Her poems and writings are visceral . The writing of Leaving Shakespeare , the direction production and acting was superb .
