Praise from Ha’aretz National Magazine in Israel:
"Chaya Lester has an unusual combination of talents: the psychological training to enable her to self-reflect and self-reveal, the lyrical flair to put her experiences to verse and the stage presence to make audiences keen to come along with her for the ride...Her wordplays alone, delivered like an old-new hybrid between a rap and a rapture, are well worth the journey.”
Praise for 'Babel's Daughter' from The Jerusalem Post:
"Lester combines spoken word poetry, character impersonations, music and audience participation.
She takes breaks during the show for audience members to write down and reflect on their own feelings...There are very intense and profound tear-jerking pieces to the show...
And yet it’s in a container that is accessible, engaging
and inviting for people to enter..."
