"What will happen next?  Who will live and who will die?  It's a tense and fascinating ending that I recommend you experience for yourself. It's refreshing to hear dialogue that is so up to date, aggressive, bratty and also vulnerable. This play which has no males onstage is a special opportunity to see female characters who have overcome adversity to find their own way in life, yet enjoy the chance to bond using their unique language."

Fool for Love

Leslie Bramm · NY Theatre - February 25, 2011
"...As May, Christina Elise Perry is amazing. In the hands of a lesser actor May would be an easy role to overact. Perry finds a perfedt balance and restraint, showing us May's range and her hurt. She's beautiful, but lets herself go to ugly places in her heart, and you believe her.
