What the critics are saying:

"As staged by Theater Ninjas artistic director Jeremy Paul in collaboration with CPT, it's a dreamy and mesmerizing melding of frenzied stasis and languorous activity. The playwright's abrupt but gauzy language and Paul's dreamscape vision emerge through the effortless-looking work of a trio of actresses who portray three facets of the same woman -- of all women -- as well as individual women, their characters, bound by emotion, psychology and biology." - Tony Brown, Plain Dealer

"Playwright Lisa D'Amour has a fine touch when it comes to speeches that combine banal facts with lean, poetic flourishes. And thanks to three outstanding performances, one's attention virtually never wavers. As Irene, Elizabeth R. Wood is rumpled and resigned, but she still has enough moxie to rise up in defense of her daughter when pressed to the wall. Faye Hargate as Anna Bella beautifully merges the childlike seriousness and yearning for discovery of a typical fifth grader. And Cassie Neumann is riveting and chiseled as the mud girl." - Christine Howey, Cleveland Scene

Written by Obie Award Winning playwright Lisa D'Amour, Anna Bella Eema combines creepy campfire stories, music, sound and fairy tales in an original, stylized avant garde one-act. This inventive new work is a highly imaginative story of the mother-daughter bond, spoken and sung by three women. Anna Bella Eema will be a co-production with Theater Ninjas, a CPT resident theatre company, and is directed by Theater Ninjas Artistic Director Jeremy Paul.
