Recommendations of Br'er Cotton

  • Danielle Ozymandias: Br'er Cotton

    The imagery is stunning. I’d love to see how creative designers would get to be with this. The kitchen sinking is just an incredible concept. How strange and wonderful. It’s beautifully written, the flirting scene with Nadine and the Officer is fantastic. The relationship between Mathew and Ruffrino- I just love it. Truly one of the best things I’ve read.

  • James Fleming: Br'er Cotton

    A brilliant, relevant, and deeply humane play by a rising young writer. It is stunning and the first time I read it, I was shook. You should produce this play in your theatre's next season.

    An amazing writer and a beautiful play. This play should be on everyone's short list of works to be produced ASAP.

  • Sheila Cowley: Br'er Cotton

    Biting, potent and deliciously poetic. Riveting characters all fighting their own battles in a vivid surrealist tragedy rooted in Br’er Rabbit’s struggles to get into heaven. Deserves to be alive onstage, with impressionistic staging and an electrifying spoken and unspoken story.
