The Virtuous Fall of the Girls From Our Lady of Sorrows

See it if Some real good acting in this performance. A story that is not deep but humorous at times.

Don't see it if If you want a show that follows through on the plot lines. Disappointing story about girls going through maturity. Needs polish.

See it if Femia's Catholic school girl dramedy is far from 'catholic' with the usual yet amusing coming-of-age antics Lesbian love story well handled

Don't see it if Annoying that all characters have "baggage" as it muddies main theme of budding sexuality vs religious dogma Canter excels in adult roles

See it if you’d like to see a group of high school girls liberate themselves from an ethical code that makes no sense as they approach adulthood.

Don't see it if you do not want to see a pack of high school girls shred traditional ethics.

Also Every season Spicy Witch mounts a 2-show season in rotating performances, a classic play & a commissioned play that's somehow in dialog with that classic. It’s a satisfying formula, & this season the new play feels in every way fresher than the classic, “Measure for Measure.” One woman in the ensemble of 7 plays all the adults—most of them nuns teaching at a Catholic girl’s high school in Brooklyn a year after 9/11—& the rest are her students, a diverse, lively contentious bunch.

See it if really well rendered detailed on stage life impresses you. The issues that drive each character work to make a complex production.

Don't see it if you expect to see a teen take on Shakespeare's Measure for Measure which is supposed to be the source material for the student's project

See it if You are interested in a realistic portrayal of teen girls with all the messiness that entails.

Don't see it if You would be offended by frank discussions of sex, menstruation, religion, sexuality, cursing.

Also Very interesting piece and very well done. Felt utterly realistic (for the most part) about being a teenage girl struggling with growing up.

Fine acting all around - didn’t have any problem believing these women were in their teens.

I liked the Catholic school setting and the discussions about faith versus feelings, etc...

Another great experience from Spicy Witch Productions — I highly recommend whatever they do.... Read more Read less
