The Buffalo Hero of World War I

See it if Some good acting esp Daryl Wyatt. A story that had to be told. Interesting info provided.. With some publicity the story can move on.

Don't see it if Some weak acting.. Theater not easy to find in the building. (Maybe we were too early for the posted signs?) The set can use more work.

See it if You are interested in the challenges faced by African American soldiers in WWI, enjoy learning about history in plays based on real events

Don't see it if You need a fully polished production, are not interested in African American history, prefer light plots, are not open to facing some truths

See it if Very important story.Powerful,relevant, and thought provoking. Uneven acting.This play is absorbing and interesting. See it!

Don't see it if Everyone should see it. It is a timely and important story.

See it if you like historical characters & interested in the lives of non-white soldiers in the USA. Like to see up and coming actors at their onset.

Don't see it if you want a fully polished performance, set or costumes! Like more refined performances.

Also The story touches on the Characters past, on President Wilson's racism, on the riots at that time and the segregation of the armed forces and the Red Cross - but not enough of any.
More information or attention on Minor and who he really was (if that information exists). Despite, I am glad I saw it.... Read more Read less

See it if you want to see an important and often overlooked story of African American military service

Don't see it if you're not interested in historical drama.

Also This production had a very "amateurish" feel to it

See it if If you like stories about historical characters, and about how poorly African Americans were treated in the past.

Don't see it if You want to see professional actors.

See it if There is an interesting and important premise in this show...the stories of soldiers of color have been underrepresented in American history

Don't see it if but this show wasn't the venue for it. While I appreciate the effort, this show wasn't well written or acted. But support artists of color!

See it if You want to see an important story, told by a mostly African American cast.

Don't see it if You want to see any talent on stage. Everything falls short: the acting, sets, lighting, script and costumes.

Also As poor a production as this was and trust me...it was bad...I found myself drawn in by the idea of the story. Enough that I wanted to know where it went anyway. A a piece of history I found it interesting. As a piece of theatre I couldn’t wait to get out of there.... Read more Read less

See it if An important untold story about an African-American WWWI hero

Don't see it if The play was poorly written and executed.

See it if you nothing about the historic of African Americans serving in the armed forces in the twentieth century or the Buffalo Soldiers.

Don't see it if even in a workshop you need a well written show that you think can be rescued with some tweaking, rewriting and refinefinement.

Also Although the acting is extremely amaturist, the rating is strictly based on the writing. In a workshop, such as this, I easily forgive the problems caused by a low budget - weak (but sincere actors), poor set, poor costumes. But the writing here shows little hope of being rescued. That is the reason for the rating.

This is an important historical topic built around an important historical figure. I think works like this need to show respect for historical accuracy. The licence taken here, always necessary in a play, goes too far.... Read more Read less
