From audience members

“It was a moving show that had me crying in moments. War is so complicated . . . but you were able to distill it into a collection of very real . . . relatable stories. . . . Your show revealed that behind the complications and grandeur of the history there are simple people like you and me, each with their own story to tell. And it was so beautiful to see people in that latter stage of life on a stage, given a voice.”

“Such a beautiful show. . . . The stories are incredible. It is also incredible that you heard them and gave them a voice. What a gift to all of us. I was sitting next to GI Jill . . . and had the privilege of hearing her commentary (‘I remember that too,’ and, ‘She is quoting me’). . . . I appreciated the different points of view. . . . It is easy to forget that old people used to be young and had many of the same dilemmas as young people today. . . My dad (83) and his cronies would love this show. I think you could sell a lot of tickets in Fergus Falls. It needs to happen again.”
