Unsettling, Absorbing, Great acting, Relevant, Sometimes humorous

See it if you are looking for a thought provoking, contemporary, existential look at racism. Disquieting as it is, excellent play & performances.

Don't see it if you are seeking light fare and a care-free evening. I saw the play three days ago and cannot stop thinking about it.

Absorbing, Great acting, Riveting, Thought-provoking

See it if Every one of the 75 intermissionless minutes is taught and compelling. Great performances. Boundary pushing writing delivers.

Don't see it if Raw and disturbing, with enough n-word usage to render it meaningless (which is, of course, the idea). Not for the faint of heart

Ambitious, Edgy, Great acting, Relevant, Intense

See it if BlackLivesMatter meets Godot w/a stop on 'da plantation' Nwandu's grandly theatrical drama is a potent allegory for the times Epic in scope

Don't see it if Leads are often broadly written (esp Master/Ossifer) & street patrois / profanity not for all Ending a little contrived despite its power

Ambitious, Intelligent, Intense, Relevant, Thought-provoking

See it if you can follow absurdist plays and want to see something that has real substance.

Don't see it if you can't follow absurdist plots. Otherwise, it is something that everyone should see. Read more

Ambitious, Great acting, Edgy, Relevant, Intense

See it if You're into an intimate-setting play about a present and topical issue. It's intense, with humor, really dark humor. The acting is great!

Don't see it if You're not into the "N"-word. It takes over the play!- although it's discussed why and if you're super pro-police. Many theatregoers cried!
