Feb. 4 Debut of “In Her Words” a Success

The director and cast of “In Her Words” would like to thank the 50+ people who came out on Sat,Feb. 4 for the debut of the production.  We would like apologize wholeheartedly to those who came at 1:45pm due to the inaccurate listing in the Washington Post’s Going Out Guide which indicated that the show started at that time, instead of its 1pm actual start time. We hope that those who came later and missed most of the show will feel inclined to come to our Feb. 18 free show at Capitol View Library in NE.

Here is some of the great feedback we saw on Twitter about the show:

@ninasophia81: The music being performed here- *chills* #InHerWords #MLKLibrary

And the library liaison, Cassandra Harper wrote:
