praise from the audience:

“Holly’s one-woman show is transfixing. with lilting melodies and deft lyricism, she opens a portal of presence to grief and longing, and conjures up a living balm to meet us in those tender places. Collective catharsis ensues!” -Brodie Peterson, attendee

40 minute one-woman show with original music and ideas about grief and healing

a segment from the show featuring the original tune “The Storyteller”

In her first one-woman show, Songs for the Brave and Brokenhearted, Holly The Riot encourages tenderness in her audience, guiding them gently through her own reimagining of the stages of grief and healing. The air in the room is strangely light as she shines light along a path lined with loss, acceptance and questioning. She has a way of keeping the listeners nimble for the journey with spots of light and humor and delivers them to deeply rooted peace. A multi-hyphenate like Holly The Riot is a rare find who moves gracefully between storytelling and song, levity and despair.
