What we want YOU (Our Audience) to walk away with after GirlPower...
"Walk away knowing that even though we may have lost ourselves at one point, we found ourselves again too. We put it all out there, because we are girls with past experiences ready to face our future. What we have to be proud of is the power within us, our girl pwer!" -Lyric Anderson
"At the end of the day I just want to be heard!" - Anastasia Zorin
"After watching our GirlPower show, I would hope the audience walked away with an understanding and an open heart and mind to new things and eccentric people. I want them to feel a lot of everything, to laugh from things we say and the experences we shared and to be moved by the emotions and the sincerity of ourwords."- Dominique Fishback
"After GirlPower I hope the audience walks away with a new way to view their surroundings, one where beautyis seen in even the ugliest of places and no matter the generation there is always time to change. We'rejust a group of hungry sould ready to feast. Welcome to GirlPower, Eat Up! You will leave satifstied!"- Christina Perry
"I would like the audience to realize that our generation is well informed and adept to all that is goingon around them. We are not solely a group of self absorbed teens caught up in technological advancements and sheer artifice. We have our own issues to deal with that are just as valid as those of generations proceeding us." - Roni Laytin
We are the girls of the future Listen to our cry. Listen to the things that makeus, mad upset happy. Don't take us for granted. Don't think that we don't understand the world. We are GirlPower! Walk away with the knowledge we give you. Walk away with our problems. Walk away with the solution. Walk away with the feeling of hope. Walk away with life. But mostly, walk away knowing you have Girl Power! - Lauren Marie Curet
"Take a minute and think about what you just saw..." -Anastasia Zorin
