A gorgeous deep dive into the life and times of Abigail Burgess, this oh-so produceable solo show reads like the best of old-timey tales, the ones you imagine told around the fire at night, filled with rich language, moments of comedy, fear, and wonder. Jenny Connell Davis has brought Abigail's story to life but also crafted a script that engages audiences with very present questions of survival, wonder and resilience. I highly recommend.

Fascinating read! Wasn’t sure what it would be like to spend an hour in the perspective of a lonely 15-year old girl in the 1850s but I enjoyed it very much. It made me want to know more about the woman that it’s based on and reminded me that the line between survival and death is so small but worth fighting for. It also made me want a peppermint! If you enjoyed the 1-woman Amish Project, this should be your next read!
