“I was knocked out by Leigh’s show, “Why Water Falls.” Her writing was fluid, beautiful, surprising, intricate, and simple. And her acting of this writing was overwhelming. I went on the whole roller-coaster ride and ended up exhilarated by my exhaustion, catharsis, and total and electric involvement.” Austin Pendleton, Director, Actor, Writer, Theatre Artist

“A solo show about a woman who doesn’t like to talk about herself that’s funny, gutsy, intelligent and wonderfully surreal. As a writer, Leigh Curran looks at motherhood, creativity and making peace with irrevocable life choices from a perspective that’s fresh, full of surprises and beautifully articulated. As an actress, she’s a force of nature – honest, open and effortlessly present. A completely satisfying theatrical experience! Don’t miss it!”  Gretchen Cryer, Writer, Actress, Solo Artist

“Leigh Curran’s one person show, “Why Water Falls,” about her several selves coming together in life to make sense of their collective choices, and find a way forward that honors them all, will be a delight to people of all ages struggling with major life choices; career vs children, ambition vs family, gender identity and personal empowerment. Her piece is full of wise and moving wisdom for everyone.” Michael Weller, Playwright

“Leigh Curran’s Why Water Falls is a searing evening of self revelation that grips her audience as it takes unexpected turns in the life of this wonderful artist.” Becky and Dylan Baker, Actors
