Drama Queens' Production of "Inside Out"

“Group therapy is a humiliating ritual in which whining neurotics sit around in a circle tearing one another to shreds until everyone is reduced into a quivering heap of guilt and shame. Right?

Wrong. As ‘Inside Out,’ a smart, spunky little musical shows, the typical therapy group is more likely to be a sympathetic, supportive extended family whose members are everyday people with everyday hang-ups. As in any family, squabbles are inevitable. But as the group members work on their issues, sometimes by pretending to exchange identities in carefully supervised confrontations, they develop broader and healthier views of themselves.

‘Inside Out’ focuses on six women: a therapist and her five clients as they ‘work’ through their problems alone and together as a group.”   Review from New York Times
