I felt so tall and great when I came out.”
Every single woman should see this show. Wow.”
Using a formula not unlike Sex and the City, this play features five extremely different characters that all make up different parts ourselves.”
The belly-dancing and orgasm scenes keep the show entertaining and light-hearted.”
Gritty authenticity.”
First Hand Woman is absolutely one of the best plays I have seen.”
It’s not just the alternative to the Sex and the City movie; it’s the real thing.”
The cast is uniformly electric.”
This five-woman show is a breath of fresh reality-filled air.”
A sparkling and witty script.”
Sexy, smart.”
An outstanding life experience, not just theatre.”
Your work moved me deeply, and frankly, left me feeling a lot less alone.”
Runaway hit.”
