I had the honor of playing Carol in this play about three generations of women struggling to survive under the weight of what has come before.
“…We are confronted by three women, Carol, Anna and Bonnie, who we learn are mother, daughter and granddaughter. They exist in three different time zones but the stories are told simultaneously. As Birch herself says, the text has been scored and can be read, or viewed, horizontally. In practical terms that means that, as dialogue and action often overlap, we decide where to focus our attention.” - Michael Billington | The Guardian
