Hilariously Reclaiming Our Teenage Selves

Nissa does us a great kindness of sharing her teenage work so we can enjoy it together. We all had crushes and desires, but few of us kept such entertaining and meticulous records.

A good Take That to Wuthering Heights

The show spends a lot of time with the intensity Heathcliff and Cathy's fighting and dysfunction. I wanted less of the ghosts and more of moving on from being haunted by the past.

Company: Paper Soul
Show: Boxcutter Harmonica
Venue: Barbara Barker Center for Dance

Early season Twilight Zone vibes
