:: Audience Quotes :: “Patriotic Bitch is not only a brave artistic display of interpretation and beauty by one incredibly talented woman, but it keeps you laughing from beginning to end. An equally edgy and beautiful insight into one’s immigrants life…..the show is so politically incorrect (or correct, however you see fit)…..PB is a must see. I was genuinely blown away and inspired.” “That was a truly amazing show. Alanna is amazing. I loved it, cried at the end. Was so moving. She is young gifted courageous smart and above all a damn good actress and writer, a very rare combination.” “A striking talent. Really has it all together. I was very impressed. She’s the show and never disappoints.” “Alanna is really an amazing actor. Her transformations and characters were fantastic.” “Alanna is just amazing. A great talent. It was wonderful theater. The best of its kind= PURE SHARED EXCHANGE. Inspirational.” Roberto DeFelice - Actor “I felt startled by how vivid the characters were.” Deborah Tobin - Headhunter “An absolutely hilarious ride. Alanna brings to life some of the most intriguingly zany characters in a way that literally makes you fall off your seat. Not only did she thoroughly entertain us, but she told a story that was heartwarming and poignant. I too am an immigrant. I too felt the cruelty and condescension of those around me who felt they had a larger stake in our country. I too sold merchandise on the street to make a living. Alanna should be commended not only for her performance but for her brilliant writing that used humor and absurdity to unmask the harsh reality of being on the periphery of society. An absolutely stunning evening.” Jack Fisher - President City Lights Media |
