(read description below) This group performed at Unity to great acclaim on Thursday. These wonderful women spent the night at our house hoping to perform at Colby College but due to a bureaucratic snafoo the show was cancelled. Very fortunately, COA offered space for a Sunday performance. Because the venue is a bit too small, they won't be able to use all of the bells and whistles but I'm assured that it will be just as profound, inspirational and hopeful.
