MAFIA: The Women Speak features Pina in a compelling one-woman show that delves into the lives of women entangled with organized crime. Through the narrative of Nella, who leads a women’s Mafia Anonymous group, the performance explores deep-seated family secrets and the complexities surrounding them. As she channels the raw stories of those affected by the shadows of mob life, Pina blends humor, grit, and heart in a portrayal that invites reflection on loyalty and truth.
