See it if you like theater...terrific play. Saw the Julliard production (2016). Wonderful cast...but it's the play that's the winner.
Don't see it if are uncomfortable with dysfunctional families of racial themes...or if you only like musicals. Otherwise...see it!
See it if You need your eyes opened
Don't see it if Looking back on the past makes your soul cringe
