What I liked

Almanya Narula gave one of my favorite performances I’ve seen this Fringe, and maybe all year. She was acting from the top of her head down to the tips of her toes, and I was completely absorbed with every moment. Not to mention she WROTE the script, which was beautifully done with incredible depths and moments that had my side in stitches from laughing. Almanya has a powerful voice and I look forward to seeing what she does next.

What I didn't like

All I can say is I wanted it to be longer.

My overall impression

Incredible production all around! This often untold story is delivered in a way that sticks with you and makes you want to devote hours into researching Noor Inayat Khan. The writing and the acting were top notch, and I wish I could see it again. Don’t sleep on Almanya Narula, she is a force!
