I Turned Away and She Was Gone

I Turned Away and She Was Gone is a one-woman piece created by Jennie Reznek.

The original text
In a reworking of the Demeter-Persephone story, the play explores the passage of time and the cycles of life of three generations of women – mother, daughter, grandmother - and the relationship we all have with our past, present and future selves.
