AZO SAFO certified reviewer August 06, 2021
The characters were so dynamic and intense. The show was smart, brilliantly acted and one of the best solo shows I've ever seen. This is the show everyone should see. ... full review
SHELLEY COOPER certified reviewer August 18, 2021
This show is the real deal! The story, use of hip hop, poetry, physicalization, strong characters, and message make this show a MUST SEE. I audibly gasped, laughed, and cried throughout the journey Kevin took us all on. ... full review

To look at Kevin at first glance I saw a Caucasian male. But when I looked closer I then noticed his afro curls. But even, still not until he got 5 minutes in to his show did I find out he was mixed. Well, no wonder he's so uniquely handsome. I assumed life was pretty good for him. I mean good looking people SEEM to have charmed lives simply because of their natural beauty. But then Kevin's story starts to unfold... Kevin tells his story growing out of foster care into a mixed black gay man. He boldly addresses 'uncomfortable' topics about being torn between two worlds of being black and white and to top it off- gay. I left the theatre 'schooled' and thoroughly edutained.... full review

Kevin, at 25, is a powerhouse. Watching him jump around the space, and quickly move in and out of characters was super impressive. Not to mention his spoken word, beautiful poetry that I want to hear again just to capture more of the meaning. ... full review

HEATHER SCHICKEDANZ certified reviewer September 05, 2021
Kevin’s immense heart, wit, physicality, insight, and courage carried me through the vivid landscapes of his story, which is told in a dynamic and raw mosaic of moments and media. I believe every fellow human walking this earth can learn something unique and poignant from Kevin’s brilliant sharing of his own journey. He bridges the difficult connections to identity, family, race, education, profession, sexuality, culture and HUMANITY - bringing us closer to him, ourselves and each other. ... full review

"Versatile" is a complete work of art. From start to finish you are locked into a rollercoaster ride of high energy, tour de force realness from Kevin and his life story as a half Black, half White member of the LGTBQIA+ community. His sharp words in the form of beat poetry and fantastical characters he creates that question his identity all together throughout his personal journey are so moving, compelling and honest that you cannot even start to fully process it all until after you've left the theater and gone home to reflect. Now THAT is true theatre in my opinion, a piece of art that makes you contemplate your own identity in this world and challenges us all on a deeper level while also maintaining its humanity through entertainment that... full review
