THIS IS NOT THE WAY

AUDIENCE FEEDBACK

It was a very deep and tough subject to write about let alone perform solo.  An incredible amount of courage required. It was visually and spiritually powerful. I felt inspired that no matter what I've been through I can be someone and do something great.

I liked the multi layered  nature of the performance using different media, music and voice-overs to complement Lauren's stage presence. The set was rather classy and the gorilla intro worked well in getting people's attention.

I loved it all. I liked the symbolism of order and control with the knife and fork scene. It made me feel emotional yet hopeful. Keep it up, it's an important message. 

It's a very powerful and clear message. I felt empathy for sexual abuse and rape survivors.

The different voices, the pictures, the music and the phone ringing were powerful. I felt emotional but also optimistic and inspired to change things. I'm really glad I came to see it.

I liked the direct messages and the emphasis that rape and sexual violence can happen to anyone.  I thought it was really powerful and thought provoking. It was quite unsettling  because it made me think about the bigger picture and also my own experiences.

It was a different approach that made me think and got the message across very well.


I found it thought provoking, it should be performed in 6th form colleges.
