What I liked

Absolutely loved the diverse casting and all female cast. This is exactly what Hollywood Fringe shows should be like. This is an incredibly bold and thought provoking take on classic text. GO SEE IT!

What I didn't like

Nothing

My overall impression

Beautifully constructed piece by director Lucas Rivera Casanova. I was really impressed by the ensemble work and precise physicality by all three performers. Cemre Su Salur handles the role of the authoritarian with a powerful presence. Her violent outbursts were jarring (in a good way) but also her moments of complete stillness were so filled that it kept me engaged throughout. Lucia Xu seamlessly flows through moment to moment with touching vulnerability, and Melis Nur Yoruk balanced her character’s inner struggle perfectly, offering us only glimpses at a time until finally erupting in a monologue in her native Turkish language. Do not miss this show!
