Joyful Raven kept us laughing even as we traversed trials of love and loss, hard choices of freedom and independence, and the redefining of identity. This is wise comedy infused with compassion, including for her self. Entertaining and deeply insightful, this is a story that needs to be heard of a woman choosing and choosing again and again how she will live her life. ... full review

We just saw Joyful Raven’s exquisite Friday night June 3rd performance in front of a full house—a brilliant show that won my admiration and gratitude for a truly exquisite, funny, beautifully crafted, heart-rending, complex story. And Joyful’s storytelling chops are so sharp, so relaxed, so on point. Congrats on a wonderful Fringe show! ... full review
