A beautiful, touching story that moved seamlessly between humor and heartache. The performance was captivating and maintained an electricity throughout the entire hour. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Great performance, very well done.

Tremendous work from Beth Paterson, writer and actor, and Kathryn Yates director. Tales of if holocaust survivors are never easy, but this is told very deftly, with elements of levity and humour interspersed throughout. Resonated very strongly with me as my mother, though not Jewish, was raised stateless in Nazi Germany. I heard her voice in Beth's grandma Niusia repeatedly.

Niusia was a remarkable woman and a survivor with a story that is worth hearing. Beth is a wonderful storyteller with a personal engagement with the audience.

A well written piece and true story that is incredibly moving

Solo show, but I felt the presence of Beth’s mother grandmother and all the mothers before. Artfully told and cleverly staged reflections on matriarchal strength, generational trauma and discovering your roots. Loved it 🥰

Holy moly, what a story. Get along to this one!

stunningly poignant, heart wrenching, and humorous all at once. will make you want to hold your mum tight and give your grandparents a call. Don’t miss out on this one

NIUSIA is beautifully performed, told and made me feel so many feelings it reminded just how powerful good theatre is. An absolute powerhouse of a show, everyone deserves to see this stunning piece straight from the heart. Love, love, loved it.

Loved this engaging personal story told with skill and elegance. Very few of us will have met of have known a survivor of WW2 (especially today!) Worth the time for its honesty, poetry and empathy.

Wonderful show! Beth is very talented!

A fellow third-generation immigrants beautifully deep exploration of holding conflicting feelings about the ones who impact us most- our families.
