This is a gem of a show. Funny, moving and personal. I loved the framing device - she writes her screenplay and then acts out the parts of her life during the process of writing. She does a great job of creating the various voices both external and internal. An emotional and moving show told with grace and skill.... full review

This is a very beautifully written show about the tender relationship between daughter and daddy. But it’s more than that. It’s a relatable story about how we all have those inner voices that keep us small, if we let them. And more than anything, the beautiful power of healing through forgiveness. Every person in the audience can improve their lives just by integrating that beautiful message. Well done!... full review
