    Joining the chorus of praise for this fantastic play. This is an important piece of drama written in a thrilling and theatrical style. I can't wait to see it on stages across the country.

    I had the honor to experience this play as an actor in a staged reading presented by San Francisco's Lorraine Hansberry Theater on Jan 18, 2017. It is a vital and moving piece that deserves production EVERYWHERE! Ms. Craig-Galvan takes a narrative we all know well - black child killed by white cop - and zooms in on the mother's journey through this narrative using fantasy, transformation, and theatricality. This is one of those plays that through personalization and specificity tells a powerful universal story. I applaud Ms. Craig-Galvan for putting a woman at the story's center.

    This is the most necessary play I have ever read. It needs to be produced yesterday! Somehow, through all the trauma this play explores, the playwright makes us laugh as much as she makes us cry. But, most importantly, she leaves us with genuine hope.
