Gemma Wilcox (London, UK) portrays 20 characters in this humorous, poignant, captivating tale of love and letting go.

"Wilcox moves easily through the nuances of London's class-tinged dialects and accents, mixing vocal virtuosity with imaginative expressions and postures to herald each new personality, establishing a set of instantly recognizable icons that facilitate quick-paced, multi-character conversations." - Variety
