MADE IN AMERICA

What I liked

As I left the theatre I found myself still smiling and shouting: Teruko the Hero! As the show came to an end she brought us all to our feet and each person in that audience was not only rooting for her continued success in living her best life but we also came away with a better understanding of how vital it is for one to bet on themselves; the necessity of empathy for one another and a better understanding of ourselves and perhaps greater care for what it means to be an American.

My overall impression

Teruko! Teruko the Original! This solo show will have the hardest of humans laughing unexpectedly and then with a whisper of a word bring you to stillness. As I sat watching Teruko I was struck by her authenticity, her powerful ability to honor her true self and manifest her destiny despite the pains and tribulations she has experienced. There was freedom exuding from Teruko that made me in awe: freedom that only comes from finding ways to continue out of the dark into the light.
