Very impactful. You don't have to be Arab to see yourself reflected in the main characters. Although I feel the main conflict storyline feels unresolved, and the show feels like it ran out of time. Overall very relevant topics which bring attention too to the genocide happening right now in Palestine. Reminding us that even tho we're in this side of the world, this is happening right now.

The story of two immigrant women from the Middle East, struggling with the Canadian system. Such a strong script, brilliantly constructed.

Outstanding performances from the cast. I was particularly taken with the relationship between the two main women. Feeling their bond, their struggle and the strain of their situation.

this play is well done. set is great , the writing is very good and characters are strong. the father figure is possibly a weak link. there is a sequence that is audience participatory- no stress- that is extremely impactful! insightful to immigrants in canada.
