The proverbial play-that-I-could-not-stop-reading. The pace is brisk yet contemplative, and the significant issues brought up are carefully considered in all of their dimensions. The piece never shies away from how complicated these topics truly are and fully explores the ramifications of gate-keeping in all of its manifestations. Yet it never feels didactic and instead uses richly imagined, fully realized characters to express each point-of-view. A formidable, important, and urgent work.

A powerful play that tackles the inclusivity of cultures and who fits the bill to belong when we're all too eager to exclude. Well done.

I was lucky enough to attend a reading of this at the San Diego Latinx new play festival. It is possibly the greatest unproduced play in the Americas right now. Rachel Lynett creates a heart-breaking and moving story that magnifies the issues of colorism and identity-pirating within Latinidad. Bravo! This needs to be on Broadway TODAY.
