GIRLS LIKE GIRLS

This quaint performance by a five-narrator ensemble will tug at the heartstrings. It explores the budding relationship between Coley and Sonya, who are both learning to accept the beauty to be found in being vulnerable. Coley moves to Oregon after her mother dies and meets Sonya, who is uncertain about how a same-sex relationship will change her. Both girls stumble through expressing their feelings and learn how to cope in various ways. The narration is calm yet raw, a style well suited to the story. Certain dialogue exchanges between narrators add depth. While Coley and Sonya are portrayed as uncertain of their paths, they both grow into confident young women who are deserving of love and respect.
