Remembering & Honoring an American Shero

"Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world." --Harriet Tubman

Harriet's Return...reaches inside its heroine's thoughts all the way to her soul...The playwright supplies Harriet with "voices" who embody, among other flesh-and-blood characters, the voices inside Harriet's head that guide her to her choices...The play imitates its heroine's pragmatism in a particularly moving way.

Laurie Winer, Los Angeles Times
