UNPACKING was such a heartfelt watch. Rebecca Erin Curtis opens up about her life in such a vulnerable way that you can’t help but be captivated by her performance. She takes you through the journey of the worst moment of her life, and how it has lead her to who she is today. One can’t help but feel inspired by the challenges she has overcome. Also not to mention that she peppers in some original music and sings it so wonderfully. Thank you UNPACKING for reminding us that it’s good to make a short story long!

"Unpacking" was beautifully written and performed. The show will have you locked in for the entire hour, and evokes every emotion possible. Rebecca's story is incredibly moving and despite the heaviness of some of the topics discussed, I left the show feeling inspired. This performance is a must-see!
