This was a fantastic one woman show. It is hard to keep interest with only one person on stage yet this show flowed perfectly from one moment to the next with no gaps or laps of interest. I love how she intermingled music, effects, images, and the different characters in her play. Being basically about her own life, Helema bared her soul for all of us to share. She transformed into different aspects of her own personality and into people that were in her life. I loved the characters like Buddhista (her spiritual side), Musical (her musical/entertainment side) and Fundy (Fundamental Darkness, the doubts and insecurities that we all have inside us). You will laugh, cry, learn something, and enjoy yourself if you make it to see this show. Bravo...

Helema intimately shares the bold touching and exciting journey of her life with us in this wonderful show. I laughed, cried, cheered and clapped for her. She weaves a beautiful story and seamlessly portrays a variety of characters and scenes that she has experienced. She shows us how she has been able to learn from whatever challenges she has faced and come out the other side as a more enlightened and joyful woman. She incorporates her amazing original music and creative visual slides as well. Her performance is effortlessly authentic. It is so much fun to see and it truly touched my heart. ...

I was laughing and crying and cheering her on......

A naked look into one brave woman's survival and flourishing. Exposed and vulnerable, through music and Buddhism, she comes into being - whole and worldly - and strong enough to share her pain and glory with an audience filled with people who can relate....
