On “Becoming a Woman”

21 Sep

Last November, as a part of our Mixed Messages show, Lauren Bercovitch won over a packed house with a tale of her adult Bat Mitzvah. For those who have yet to experience the Rain City Chronicles or a show at the WISE Hall here is a perfect appetizer for our next show Saturday night. Information about the show and tickets available here.
