    Immediately charming and engaging! I love the energy and vivacity of the characters and felt immediately transported to 1920s New York. Based on a true history (that I wasn't aware of!), I really appreciated the emphasis on Jewish women. This is a great ensemble piece with equal parts heart and grit.

    Fascinating play about a little-known woman in queer history. Loved the moments of breaking the fourth wall that Esterly creates.
