Patsy Prince wows in Misfits

Excellent review for our own Patsy Prince in Misfits at The Space.

“Prince’s Meera, at the heart of almost everything, as you’d expect of an Indian matriarch, is wonderfully complex, from her desire to be accepted as a successful businesswoman in her community – a community that still values men so much more than its women, to her blindness toward her son’s lack of interest in females. One moment she is a force of nature, the next she’s quietly talking to her long dead husband, seeking advice….when Prince is present there is a feeling of life, as she binds everything together.”
