Folks Are Saying......
Every once in a while a show comes around that really moves you, reaches your heart and soul. For me, one such show is Voices of the Spirits in My Soul.

Every once in a while you see a play that makes you feel inspired. It stays with you even after the show is all over....From the moment Ms. Cole first took the stage to the end of the show, I was completely transfixed....The emotional response from the audience was one of the most heartfelt repsonses I have ever seen.

Accompanied by the sound of water, Ms. Cole begins the saga with a spiritual.....that evokes the horrific Middle Passage.......Her voice cuts through the small theatre like a knife.
