Loved It! Profoundly moving and hilarious, Laura Coyle's one woman show,"A PIECE OF WORK," is a fun, entertaining autobiographical journey that celebrates all the quirks, eccentricities, and challenges that can make life so difficult -- yet so fascinating. Beautifully written and performed, this tour-de-force is a must see.... full review

I had heard some buzz about this show but I was surprised by how much further it went than a typical one woman show. This may have something to do with how atypical Laura Coyle’s upbringing was, but it was also the wide variety of emotional notes she hits. You laugh out loud and get choked up in quick succession. The glorious cherry on this sundae, though, was the notes she hit as she pulled out her series of guitars (4!) and sang songs she’d written throughout these events. Her voice is a miracle and the songs are moving and rockin’. See it!! (I’ll probably go again to be honest.)... full review

One-woman shows require such a range of talent, intrigue, and stamina and Laura certainly delivered. She thoughtfully and yet seemingly effortlessly spun a deeply personal narrative between songs. The music was honest and haunting. Laura took us on a journey of relatable self-doubt, self-discovery, and self-love, with a humor and gut wrenching clarity. Understanding her song-writing journey had me hanging on her every lyric. She plays beautifully and has a gorgeous voice, but what was most beautiful about this performance was her complete vulnerability on stage. I walked away feeling like Laura let me know her - and somehow myself, a bit better. ... full review

This is a brave and inspiring performance about the resurrection of the human spirit. It's creative, and very moving. Best show I've seen in LA in a very long time. ... full review
