So we've performed Diamond Girls here in Winnipeg three times now. It is a battle to acquire an audience, but we are hopeful that a recent review from CBC Manitoba will help. Sheila and family were at the show last night. It was undoubtedly our most enthusiastic audience yet.
Two nights ago we had just finished watching some buskers at the Cube, when an older couple approached Malia. The woman asked, "Are you Diamond Girl?" She proceeded to tell us how much they had enjoyed our show, saying, "You don't normally see shows of this quality at the Fringe." She really made our night! Furthermore they were back for our show last night, bringing along some friends. Yesterday morning I received an email from a playwright who dramaturged the script -- informing me that we had received FIVE STARS from the CBC Manitoba reviewer. Outstanding! The full review is posted on our Press page. Last night I discovered the THREE STAR review from the Winnipeg Free Press, posted after our first show on the 13th. "Too many characters" it lamented. Oh well, you can't please everyone.
