Press Reviews

"[HANDBAGGED] is an evening of twinkling meta-theatre larkiness…In lesser hands this might prove irritating, but Buffini [handles] it with such delicate wit that this titanic struggle between two women of different backgrounds but of similar ages—both shaped by fathers they adored—becomes fascinating and affecting…It’s a show that cleverly explores the nature of history [and] reminds us that, while we remember the great events of our time, they tell us nothing about the everyday lives affected by the decisions of those in power."
