What I liked

I thoroughly enjoyed the adaptation of the various voices as different women on the stage. In a broad sense, I could relate to the idea of a woman seeing herself as a different person at each stage in her life, and that identity is not static, it evolves over time.

What I didn't like

My attention was captured beginning to end. I cannot imagine a different version.

My overall impression

I was deeply touched by the play. I was particularly moved by the different voices, and how this strong woman reminisces about different versions of herself through her life as she gradually finds her personal empowerment. I also appreciated the historical context that the documentary provided towards the end about the reality that women have endured and survived in the midst of war. The play felt personal and meaningful overall.
