I attended Opening Night and the Talk Back Night with author Sheila Callaghan. AMAZING! These folks created a MAGICAL night in the theatre where ALL of us - playwright, director, cast, crew, audience - learned so much from each other and enriched each other as human beings. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR EXCEPTIONAL WORK AND GENEROSITY OF SPIRIT. My heart was touched and I grew as a human being. The best money I've spent in a long, long time...

(no offense to anything else at the fringe...)... full review
