“A rhapsodic tour de force so passionate and emotionally close to the bone it prompted one audience member to reflexively exclaim, “Bravo!” when she finished Mr. Szudrich’s beautifully written, heart-breaking yet liberating soliloquy about a 70-something woman looking for a dignified way to move on with her life” Broadway World

“This is a beautifully written monologue with the subtle and yet mighty performance of Wendy Fischer. I’ll never forget the line, and the way she said it: “As this tornado of guilt inside my head loses its breath, I let go…I let go… I let go” London Pub Theatres
“Expect to laugh out loud at some of her encounters with a variety of dapper and not so dapper gentlemen as the taxi drives through only green lights. Her performance is outstanding, transporting you to another time, another era, of love and romance” Buzzmarketing
