This show was such an amazing and truly honest and heartbreaking story about Teruko’s super human strength and resilience. I was captivated from the very start and so profoundly moved by the journey. There’s no other show like it and there’s no one like Teruko! ... full review

What a beautiful light and positive energy is Teruko! It's contagious. Her challenges and tragedies were heavy on the heart, and, unfortunately some experiences to which I could very much relate, but her words took me on a journey where I was rooting for her all the way. Her show is a testament to her spirit's strength, igniting the will to keep going no matter what one faces. She punctuates heavy moments with great comedic timing too. I loved this show; I can't recommend it enough.... full review

This is a show you can’t miss. Teruko is a magnetic performer. Her story is incredibly inspiring from start to finish. I NEVER cry at movies, theater, whatever… and this had me tearing up in my mask. She masterfully ties her personal anecdotes together into a narrative that had me reflecting on what it means to be a woman. Strikes the perfect balance between extremely unique and absolutely relatable.... full review
