What I liked

You could not tell that the play was not originally written for zoom. This is a credit to the strength of the text that it can exist in many meidums.

What I didn't like

I don’t have any suggestions!

My overall impression

BLACK WOMEN DATING WHITE MEN, is a timely, entertaining verbatim piece which draws upon numerous important issues in a short period of time – and does so with subtlety and grace. Translating perfectly onto zoom (and online performance), it presents itself as a cluster of conversations between Black women who happen to be dating white men.

Black Women Dating White Men is expertly crafted by Somebody Jones, bringing moments of great comedy but also sincerity. Due to the nature of the conversation, it is the kind of theatre that we NEED to be watching right now.
