Electrifying. Subverts expectations again and again. I felt myself short of breath while reading at several junctures. This play needs to be more widely known. Period.

A sharp, incisive play that does an excellent job of rejecting easy answers and not taking sides as it discusses a fatal flaw (well, several) in discussions of race in America within "well meaning liberal" environments. The intersectional nuances connected to gender, sexuality, and generation, and how they interact with race deepens what already would've been a rich conversation. Also, I'm amazed by how Burgess is able to so successfully conjure a rich external world and socio-cultural context with only two characters onstage without it feeling overly "telling" or expository. Hope this continues to be programmed far and wide!

Wow! This is a great play that is so intense and intensely relevant. I got to see it produced by Interact online, and it doesn't let you go. The tension over the course of two acts is relentless. A wonderful exploration of the history of our culture and how white amerika would erase Black experience and does every day and still doesn't get it even when it's called out. A metaphor and a very specific response to 450 years + of oppression and racism and our refusal to see it and bear witness. A Must See!
