IT TOUCHED MY HEART... MY INNER SOUL... AND EVOKED MY "INNER VOICE"


Everything seemed to be so ordinary in the beginning, with day-to-day characters and domestic stories. However, as the piece developed, I was truly carried through the journey of the characters. I teared when Little Voice broke into her true inner voice loudly as she poured all her suppressed thoughts to her mum.  I was also deeply moved by her singing which connected with me immediately, in an unconventional manner as I did not hear the “technique” of how a song was being delivered but how a song was being delivered through her inner soul/voice.

It was a funny, and yet deeply meaningful piece which left the audience chewing on the meaning of what it is meant by retaining that "little voice", and yet be bold enough to express this voice in us. I was totally elated and danced on high after the performance.
