My overall impression

This show features some very strong performances (wish there had been a program so I knew who was who) and though you feel like a pinball bouncing off all the assorted surfaces of this show, it leaves you with, I think, a chance to chew on the very conflicted & complicated layers of emotions about Race in America. What I found rewarding was the range of roles, reactions and perspectives from the African American characters. Lots to think about. The preview I saw was a little scattered, but I’m sure the show will all pull together as the Fringe runs on. (That’s why their are called Previews) You should add this show to your list!
