What people are saying about Nice Girls Don't Sweat:

"It's important to honor the history of women's sports and to be able to laugh at it now so we don't get angry.  And it's important for younger people to reflect on that history." 
-Chris Voelz

Former Director of the Women's Athletic Department

"Your performance was stunning!  It was rip-roaring funny and as you could tell our people enjoyed it immensely.  I can't wait to see your other shows." 
-Maureen "Mo" Weiss

Program Chair, AAASP National Conference
  
"It kind of lit a fire under me..It made me think of things in the past that I definitely wouldn't want to have done.  But when she talked about the differences that still exist, I thought about how far they've come, but how much further there is to go. " 
-Kristin Carlson 
Hope College student
  

"You were truly a hit at our Gendered Space Conference! Your performance of "Nice Girls Don't Sweat" received rave reviews in our formal evaluations and from the informal feedback I have been receiving all fall.  I must say, I was laughing so hard throughout that tears were nearly streaming down my face, and I found it fascinating to hear the way the laughter emanated from the audience in waves as the import of your comments gradually sank in.  You truly have a way with the crowd....You added a marvelous dimension to the conference, and the content of your performance certainly fit well into the theme and into our goal of addressing a variety of contemporary gender issues from multiple perspectives."

Program Director, Women's Studies

"I just want to say thank you for organizing that one-woman show for the athletes especially. She was excellent!
I've attended lectures for just about any department here and that was by far one of the most entertaining. I really, really enjoyed that and I want to thank you for bringing such a talented woman to campus!
Thank you!"

"I wanted to share some comments with you from my class about your presentation.

Male comments:
'The show was great! The content was spectacular! As a male it really gave me a new perspective on the struggle of women in sport.'
'This presentation was interesting, knowledgeable and humerous (sic) all at the same time. Jane Curry knocked it out of the park.'

Female comments:
'The Jane Curry presentation was a great expression of how women in sport have grown. It was great history with good humor which made some important facts memorable. I learned a lot about the adventure these women took and it is thanks to them we, the women, are where they are today in sports and society.'
'Great presentation for athletes and coaches of both sexes. Teaches us all the importance of equality, fairness and opportunity.' "
