Primadonna…
An exploration of identity, double standards, Catholic
guilt, the female sisterhood and various other cultural aspects of being
Italian, Primadonna: Confessions of an Italian Princess is one of this
year's true festival gems. At times, this culturally poignant act was
intensely hilarious, while other moments caused tears to run down the
cheeks of its ultimately captivated audience. Though there were minute
instances where the non-Italian members of the audience felt lost in
translation, Primadonna quickly bounced back, delivering an engaging
performance packed with tender moments, brilliant delivery,
heart-warming humour and a fabulous performance by seasoned pro Nadia
