Review by THEA PUESCHEL

What I liked

Because the world is collapsing and intrusive thoughts want to win. “Desiree” is hanging up her cape, kicking up her heels and lying down, because as a transplant she has failed to launch her writing career and isn’t going to the beach once a week. She’s “Going Live” to end it all, but first she must write a suicide note, and it needs to be good. Because they might make a movie out of it. Destiny Faith unflinchingly weaves news footage, intense emotional depth, dark humor, well-crafted spoken word and TikTok videos to challenge that Black women aren’t supposed to feel a certain kind of way.

What I didn't like

My overall impression

The mesmerizing performance of Destiny Faith writer/actress and her collaboration with Sabrina Cofield director created a powerful and poignant show.
