What I Want My Words to Do to You

Rating:
Summary: Gripping and full of compassion
Review: This production shows women who have committed terrible crimes talking about their feelings as human beings-- their regrets, the difficulty of living after the crime/s were committed, what it's like to know they will be in prison for the rest of their lives, what it felt like to be considered 'monsters' in the press, and more. Eve Ensler is leading a writer's circle where the women are exploring these themes. Her interaction with the women is so straight across. The whole feeling of this production is that these are human beings first and prisoners second. It is a work of great compassion and honesty.
