This was my first Fringe show, and I dont think I could have made a better choice. I wanted to be captivated, educated, and entertained, and got exactly that. The performances felt very organic and the acting was superb, I felt the emotions of the characters and weight of the material due to this, and was such a treat. If you enjoy great acting, a fascinating story, and a production that brings it all together this is your show, would love to see this show again!... full review

Acting - Taut. Patient. Haunting. Setting and atmosphere - Thick. Heavy. Wet. As the date and time kept crawling towards the inevitable assassination of MLK, we are living with the men charged with a mission yet confronted with their humanity. Questions of what would you do pop up? What fear can do to men who are in power and want to keep it. How a great country trying to find its way can get lost in their pursuit of a liberating idea. Representative Democracy. Nothing is perfect. This idea is as close as it gets🇺🇸... full review
