“Ashley D. Nguy\u1ec5n\u2019s navigation of two very different roles in the past and present powerfully anchors<\/strong> the show. She naturally has a soft, inviting presence that conveys nuance, yet both roles require a lot of anger. Her physicality and maturity in portraying Young Mother, with stark, stoic strength amid adversity and inhumanity, make for a hauntingly brave performance<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Ashley D. Nguy\u1ec5n plays both the Young Mother and Mary superbly<\/strong>, able to shift from a slow simmer to a full, pedal-to-the-metal fireball… It\u2019s an impressive range<\/strong> and riveting to watch<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The actor, Ashley D. Nguy\u1ec5n, delivers a striking performance<\/strong> as Young Mother, both in the opening scene at the hospital and in the later scene… opposite Commune Director (Tony K. Nam.) Their scene as a whole is deeply unsettling, arguably the most evocative<\/strong> in the performance.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
