watching this very moving play
at the historic fisher theatre
as a story of people
who have always felt outsiders
unheard, unloved, and unseen
plays out before us
in words, in actions, in music
where the audience sits in total silence
and cries.

“Even when the dark comes crashing through,
when you need a friend to carry you and when you are broken on the ground,
you will be found.”

When the audience is completely silent, you just know that’s a great play.

I’ve not seen the show but the lead actor sang one of the big songs on a late night tv show and reduced me to tears.
