It is a power packed, nonstop performance which is mind blowing for a 1 man show. The hour that I was there has impacted my life with a new understanding of the modern day youth experience. What an emotional ride. Being a strong, alpha male, the emotions I felt were deep and conviction. It takes a lot to stir me from moments of laughter to tears. I would highly recommend this to ALL.... full review

His takes on some of the important issues in the african-american community and its juxtaposition with historical content make this an engaging production. I was invested in this play from beginning to end.... full review
