Shamas, Alone
Not really a play...but it is theatre
by Jim Murchison
I have a confession to make. I am not now, nor have I ever been a woman. I am a little embarrassed that I have had no experience as a woman, as I feel a woman should be writing this review. My mother, my sister and my grandmother were all women. I blinked one day and my two daughters became young women. I have always been an admirer of women. Those are my only credentials, so they will have to do.
I don’t always like 1 person shows, because I feel they would be better staged with an ensemble. This show could only be done as a 1 person show by 1 person. It is 100 % Sandra Shamas, so it is entirely appropriate that it be performed by Sandra Shamas.
