The story is very raw in the first few minutes. If you see it through, you'll be treated to a rich and relevant tale. I didn't 100% understand what was happening at first listen, but the interview at the end added clarity.

Wonderful interview at the end

I really wish there were verbal or audio cues showing time as it’s elapsing. I missed some important context multiple times throughout this performance, leaving me a bit confused, which is unfortunate because this is otherwise a beautiful storyline and the performance is done very well!!

4.5 rounded up!

Caution: expect time is elapsing without that info being communicated to u as u listen so u don’t end up confused

I've spent ten years in the Middle East ang got to know the women from there as special, caring and sharing women - as portrayed in this play. The heartbreak due to separation because of politics is so true. What an excellent piece of writing.

Heartwrenching

At first I wasn't sure where the story was going. The characters are well-developed. The tragedy of being left behind by the people you love & trustthe most seems unbearable

We rarely think about the people on the other side
