Cr�ticas:

"The pieces are comic, grotesque, on purpose. First of all because we women have been crying for two thousand years. So let's laugh now, even at ourselves. And also because a certain gentleman of the theatre, who knew a lot, a certain Moliere, used to say: When you go to the theatre and see a tragedy, you identify, empathise, cry, cry, cry, then go home and say, 'What a good cry I had tonight, ' and you have a good night's sleep. The social significance went by like water over glass. But for us to provoke you to laughter ... you have to have a brain, you have to be alert ... to laugh you throw open your mouth and also your brain and into your brain are hammered the nails of reason." -Franca Rame"Set at the point where reality and ideology rub up against each other, [these] monologues are vivid, concise and entertaining comments on the female condition ... comic-but-angry, raw-but-precise." -The Independent (London)..". buoyant, angry and vitally funny monologues ... the evening becomes a rich human comedy of the sexes. Even as the women rail against their male oppressors, they see the bigger picture - their own contradictions and absurdities, the social forces that grind down men and women alike, the whole messy business of living with the alien other gender." -Steven Winn, S F Gate"Subversive wit and theatrical extravagance." -L A Weekly"Funny and lusty." -L A Times"
