This performed recital of Jewish life stories is inventive and insightful, though at times its demanding method distracts from the storytelling.

A compelling basis for a story, sadly this globetrotting play is a little half-baked and a lot preachy.

Yes, a few tasteless jokes, but the lively and cleverly written musical numbers were really enjoyable. Overall an entertaining stage adaptation with some captivating performances throughout.

High-stepping musical theatre in the classic Broadway tradition.

An important and educational piece. It somewhat lacked the panache expected for the stage.

Energetic, hilarious and absurd one-woman show full of richly drawn characters.

An entertaining and emotive look into the history of a feminine culture.

A well-intentioned but ultimately misjudged tribute to the most dangerous of professions.

A culturally diverse sampling of work from the Be Festival, interesting but could do with some tightening.

Despite the need for a tightening of its focus it’s able to touch on a lot of worthwhile topics and has a lot of fun while doing it.
