About this listen

Growing up in an impoverished home, with an alcoholic mother burdened by declining mental health, subjected Sydney Regan to a belief that she was invisible to the world that surrounded her. However, the gift of a small, ornamental dog gave Sydney hope; a forgotten song maintained a vital bond, and an imaginary box buried in the depths of her mind ensured her survival. Inspired by authentic events and experiences, Sydney’s Promise is a heart-wrenching, thought-provoking story of relationships. Addressing many social issues, this story seamlessly transitions between the past and the present to follow the journey of Sydney Regan’s life. It is a story that details the spirit and perseverance of a young girl besieged by neglect, and the emotional trauma of being submersed inside of a dysfunctional environment. An immersive and emotional narrative of a “child being raised by a village”, the context within Sydney’s Promise is also an intimate description of one woman’s capability to endure, and overcome the anguish bestowed upon her by the pathway of her life. She achieves this through her resilience, her understanding, her strength to find forgiveness, and above all, an unrelenting love from her past.
