This is more than theatre; it's an intimate personal sharing of a beautiful relationship that has stood up against incredible odds - delivered by the two people who have lived it. Kudos for writing, directing and the fearlessness of Mimi and Mara, who are opening their lives onstage so we the audience can understand the Trans marriage experience. It was one "ah-hah" moment after another for me - and I'm LGBT! ...

This is a show about love, pure and simple. As such, it is truly inspirational. If only we could all have such a deep and abiding love as the 2 principals Mimi and Mara have now shared for decades! Wouldn't the world be a better place then??? It is their story, and they bravely share it with the world, including cis-gender heterosexual peeps like me. It's funny and serious and everything in between. ...

My Trans Wife is an incredible story of the human spirit and heart surrendering to itself and the pure love residing in it. These two beautiful women share their story: their relationship, it’s ups, it’s downs, their love for each other, presenting and transitioning into a female identity, dealing with life, family, friends. This was awe inspiring and eye opening for me. Thank you for bravely sharing your story. The beautiful harmonica pieces. Hearing the journey of your love and knowing the (terrible) comments made by certain family members and seeing you standing on stage next to each other: enduring, thriving, loving. Thank you for opening this up to an audience. Go and see this show! ...

How can one couple's journey, riddled with so much pain, complexity, and Mount Everest-type challenge, be handled with such grace, joy, love, openness, and beauty? Mimi and Mara will steal your hearts, break them, then return them to you more full and whole than you could have imagined. Even if their story is not your story, this play is both magic and medicine. Oh, and they are adorably hilarious, too!...

A compelling story of two very courageous people. A thought provoking piece that grabbed me from the moment Mimi and Mara appeared on stage till the curtain call which seemed far too soon. I wanted more. It is rare when a play transcends theatre and becomes an Event while entertaining and educating. This is one of those pieces. A play that should not be missed....
