A masterpiece for the ages! Beautifully captivating, heartfelt, nostalgic, and an eye-opening performance that makes you laugh, dance, and cry all at once. I've never seen an entire audience in tears and the energy in the room was impeccable! Also don't get me started on her operatic voice, it was ASTOUNDINGLY BEAUTIFUL! ...

I found the play very entertaining and the acting amazing! It was a play that drove our emotions from laughter to tears and often times within the same scene.
Laurens portrayal of several different women during the play transitioned flawlessly from one character to the other, sometimes in a simultaneously fashion.

We would see again!

I have never heard a live operatic voice like that before, and it blew me away. ...
