Reviews
"There was a feeling of 'yes-I-want-to-change-the-world' in the air and it's hard to imagine anyone left feeling angry or depressed about social injustice, since the performers conveyed their social agenda with just the right amount of optimism and hopefulness." Irina Jauhianinen, Sabotage Reviews; "She Grrrowls is a ravishing, fierce and funny showcase of the some of the best mouths in town." Amber Tamblyn
