Audience Response
“Make Sure It’s Me is an engaging, powerful, and moving experience.”
Portsmouth Herald “I was overwhelmed by the power, passion and content of this play. [It] has captured so much of what we are learning and experiencing here in New Hampshire. It is not just about TBI - it is about military culture - and can serve as an important teaching tool for all of us as we do our best to serve NH's military community. We will be benefiting from Make Sure It’s Me for a long time after the performances are over.” Jo Moncher NH DHHS Bureau Chief of Community Based Military Programs “Amazingly thoughtful and moving look at the challenges of servicemen and women and their families when they come back from war with TBI or PTSD.” Terie Norelli N.H. House of Representatives “The play is over the top good. This performance has more potential to open up the discussion of TBI than any other venue I have seen thus far.” Ron Snow Brain Injury Association of NH, NH Commission of PTSD/TBI, and the NH Military-Civilian TBI Collaborative “It has definitely hit the mark in terms of everyone’s goal to promote awareness of TBIs.” Susan Burns, Manchester VA “A call to action, if you will, on behalf of our young men and women and their families who sacrifice so much to serve our country. Bravo for bringing this hidden truth to light.” Patti Delaney Gelinas “[W]hat a home run the performance it is . . . truly brilliant.” Dan Bricker, Manchester VA “…an emotionally accurate depiction of life after brain injury.” Carol Davis Service provider - Lakeview Neurological Rehab “I have not seen anything yet that captures the true essence of the whole picture like the play did. No movie, no book, no TV show, news media, no TBI briefing, nothing. This play…will capture this time of war for generations to come. Have you planned a national tour yet? If you haven't, you should.” Lisa Aldridge Military Transition Assistance Advisor for the NH National Guard “It was like being part of a real life documentary, in which you actually begin to care about the characters and take an interest in what is in store for them.” Julie Cleary “It brought tears to my eyes and at the same time left me with a happy heart. With many family members and clients in the service or retired...thank you from the bottom of my heart for bringing awareness and a perfect forum for communication for those that need it. This life we are allowed to live because of the brave is taken for granted daily. Thank you for the reminder that freedom isn't free to our soldiers and their families.” Kyhle Copp |
