MetaFam: a solo show by Deana Barone

A truly great show. Deana introduces you to her family over the course of the hour. She transforms herself, first through voice and body, to create a scene with all of her family, then uses costumes to highlight each family member in a scene. A really unique look into the people and beliefs that live inside the performer. Don't forget to pipe up! The audience is part of the show, too. ... full review

Deana is utterly charming and sincere as she plays the roles of various family members and takes you on a journey through the landscape of their lives, and her quest to find herself amid a torrent of other people's ideals and issues. She endears us to each family member with her expert performance. Thoroughly touching and enjoyable. It's like experiencing a good novel.... full review
