Publisher's Summary
Imagine living with a fear so visceral each day that simply walking down the street draws terror to one’s core. That’s the best case scenario for a woman on the streets of Juárez, Mexico. Kate del Castillo (La Reina del Sur) delivers a stunning one-woman performance that transports listeners from a New York stage to the treacherous streets of Juárez, Mexico, where thousands of women have been murdered in an ongoing epidemic of violence. Written by Isaac Gomez (Steppenwolf’s La Ruta) and based on his intimate interviews, the way she spoke is a raw and riveting exploration of responsibility and follows one playwright's journey to give voice to a city of women silenced by violence, fear, and a world that has turned a deaf ear to their stories. This poignant and unforgettable play is directed by Obie and Lucille Lortel–winner Jo Bonney.
Written by Isaac Gomez
Performed by Kate del Castillo
Directed by Jo Bonney
Original Theatrical Sound Design by Elisheba Ittoop
Note: the way she spoke contains mature language and themes, and graphic description of violence against women. Listener discretion is advised.

Growing up as the daughter of Mexican immigrants in Chicago in the nineties, Erika Sánchez was a self-described pariah, misfit, and disappointment—a foul-mouthed, melancholic rabble-rouser who painted her nails black but also loved comedy, often laughing so hard with her friends that she had to leave her school classroom. Twenty-five years later, she’s now an award-winning novelist, poet, and essayist, but she’s still got an irrepressible laugh, an acerbic wit, and singular powers of perception about the world around her.

Appalling ..... but format not engaging
Can’t believe these things can happen and there is no one stopping these murders. This story was a bit hard to follow and I don’t speak Spanish, so much was lost, I’m sure. Couldn’t finish. The subject matter is important, but the format of this story was not the best way to present it. Sorry, not an overly engaging read.

Confusing to Follow
I found this difficult to follow. I mean the acting was good, you could tell they were into it. But I found keeping track of the characters difficult. I didn't know someone was male until they straight up said it Because I couldn't figure out the characters I found the story difficult to get into, but I mean I understand the premise and that what is happening is horrible but I couldn't connect because I was confused.

Message of inhumanity to women is important to know. Confused at first about who’s speaking and the context lay out. I didn’t follow who she’s talking to. What’s male or female voices. Lot of Spanish I didn’t understand. Suddenly gets extremely loud screaming in Spanish.

Hard to follow
The story addresses an important and brutal topic: the murders of women and the brutality in Juarez. Reality isn't always pretty. But, the way the story is told and narrated is very confusing. I didn't get much out of the story other than the descriptions of the brutalized victims and snippets of the fear of the women who live there. There were confusing time switches (or maybe location switches? I'm not sure); a narrator who emotes well but I wasn't certain whether or when she spoke as a man or a woman. Also, a lot of Spanish, which I am conversant in, but would be even more confusing for a listener who isn't.

Powerful, but it's a pity I don't speak Spanish
An incredibly powerful subject which, I think, was well researched.
Unfortunately, I don't speak Spanish. Often times when the narrator made a key statement, it was lost for lack of translation.

Must hear story!!!
A gutwrenching portrait of voilance against Mexican women who end up missing/dead. A goverment who closes their eyes and do not act on protecting them because often of their role and corruption.
Chapeau to Kate del Castillo who gives voice to all those missing women. It broke me when she read the names of the victims.

One of Jane Austen’s most beloved works, Pride and Prejudice, is vividly brought to life by Academy Award nominee Rosamund Pike ( Gone Girl). In her bright and energetic performance of this British classic, she expertly captures Austen’s signature wit and tone. Her attention to detail, her literary background, and her performance in the 2005 feature film version of the novel provide the perfect foundation from which to convey the story of Elizabeth Bennet, her four sisters, and the inimitable Mr. Darcy.

Story
One of Jane Austen’s most beloved works, Pride and Prejudice, is vividly brought to life by Academy Award nominee Rosamund Pike ( Gone Girl). In her bright and energetic performance of this British classic, she expertly captures Austen’s signature wit and tone. Her attention to detail, her literary background, and her performance in the 2005 feature film version of the novel provide the perfect foundation from which to convey the story of Elizabeth Bennet, her four sisters, and the inimitable Mr. Darcy.
