What I liked

I loved how Lorinda reclaims herself. She not only uses her bite, she also uses her voice from that bite. It is as if it is a bite or a fight back against being pushed down. She rises emotionally, physically, and spiritually. I liked the different age ranges she uses with her acting.

What I didn't like

N/A

My overall impression

Lorinda’s strength was felt throughout the show. I felt the pain and triumph surrounding domestic violence. She uses her traumatic experiences seen with the justice system, being a Black woman, and society’s blame on victims into art making and power.
