The Pittsburgh Tatler: Barron’s play is, on the surface, about a bunch of girls navigating competition and friendship in the context of a dance studio – it’s about the delicate psychosocial choreography that ensues when girls compete and their hunger to excel rubs up against both the social pressure to be nice and the desperate fear of losing a friend.

I'm sure this is so relatable for women. Sometimes I think back on the person that I was in primary school and high school and I wonder where that girl has gone. It's such a strange time in your life and you are also among people/different personalities going through the same thing so it's rough at times. There are so many things about myself that has either evolved or simply faded away. Some of those things I am proud to say are gone and some I do miss a little bit. I'm not afraid to admit that I was not the best person during my teens. I was young- still growing; still maturing. But I was also so brave, willing to take risks and carefree. It's such a confusing time as a growing girl and there is so much going on. I will say that my environment and the people I surrounded myself with definitely helped to influence the person that I was and the choices that I made. I also moved a lot, so it seems as though I was constantly evolving as my environment changed. Looking back, it's interesting to see how I adapted to everything around me as well as the changes. So I understand the struggle of navigating the world as a young girl and I'm sure lots of people can appreciate seeing this in a theatrical way.
