What I liked

TL uses her body and voice to embody a plethora of characters that guide, sadden, and love her life as a page turner. This is brilliant like good costuming is to a film.

What I didn't like

I would like it if there were slightly longer pauses between scenes to let scene complete, before the next one begins. Give a chance to digest. There is a lot going on in the play.

My overall impression

It becomes a never ending effort at inclusion in a world that offers you to just choose either purple or green, straight or bent, listening well or reading sign language. The character TL evolves is compelled to find where she belongs in a community that does not have enough preference boxes to check.
