Tom Carreyette, edfringe, UK

"…the piece does get quite intense, with more than a few people wiping away tears…"
"…a very powerful theatrical experience, a real roller-coaster ride, as moving as it is educational"
Struan MacKenzie, THE EVENING NEWS, UK

"A heart rendering tale told beautifully by the heroine."

Nick Fieldsend, edfringe, UK

Iain MacWhirter, SUNDAY HERALD, UK

"…Wurth's life story is worth telling."
Maxie Swalwinska, THE GUARDIAN, UK

"…It’s not hard to see why this short, snappy, bittersweet monologue has already proved a hit"
HACKNEY GAZETTE, LONDON, UK

"Ines gives a very funny but also very moving illustration of her upbringing in Yugoslavia. If you only see one show in the Edinburgh Festival see this one. You won't regret it!"
Mark Lester - Actor ("Oliver!"), England, UK

"I found Ines' show to be extremely compelling material. A heart wrenching but ultimately hopeful story, beautifully written."
Lesley Ann Warren - Actress ("Desperate Housewives"), Los Angeles, CA

"A powerful written personal story, which speaks of universal themes - of the transient nature of memory and identity, and how we somehow find our footing therein. Ms. Wurth's humor and her sense of irony, even innocence never allow this deeply emotional piece to enter cynical terrain."
Robert Di Nozzi - Producer ("Flight Plan" - Jodie Foster), Los Angeles, CA

"...well worth your time" ".a complicated story told in a beautifully simple and intriguing way."
Kay Lenz- Actress, Los Angeles, CA

... "is a vivid and gripping story/performance of one young Croatian woman's journey from the land of her birth to her adopted country and back through her history. "It is also her journey through her internal landscape to gain new insights. "Movingly presented by Ines Wurth, the piece engages us with its compelling tale, thoughtful humor and the skillful performance by this accomplished actress."
Steven Kent - Director, Los Angeles, CA
