Our exciting return performance. After a 4 year hiatus, our 2 sold out shows brought audiences along with us on a journey from young love to new. Each song was matched with antoher -- The First: A call to action. The Second: A life-changing response. Looking through the eyes of one women manifested in many forms, the entire room faced challenges, found joy, and grew old together.

After an enthusiastic reaction to our workshop, we booked our
first full-scale performance less than 2 months later at the well-
known Manhattan music venue, the Highline Ballroom. We
packed the club with over 300 passionate audience members,
had an opening act, added new songs, more choreography, and
deeped our storytelling on a bigger stage, with fuller sound,
intense lighting, and even more people to follow along with us.
