An absolutely compelling play! I couldn't stop turning the pages. A fantastic, multifaceted examination of the pressures women are under as students, athletes, daughters, leaders, and then a layer of religious demands on top of that. This play deserves a spot up there with King James in the theatre oeuvre. This play is a perfect three points from midcourt!

American Fast is a thrilling, fast paced examination of what it means to be true to yourself, and the difficulties that are experienced when the outside world gets in the way. The writing is sharp, the characters are deeply developed, and the story is thrilling and deeply moving. It scores like an endless string of three-pointers that leaves the audience gasping for air. Most importantly, it's a story that's not often told on stages in American yet yearns to be seen.

AMERICAN FAST works beautifully with the particular themes of religion & relationship (mother/daughter, athlete/coach, girlfriend/boyfriend, media – social & news). There are lots of challenging opportunities for designers to shine, though it’s also possible to produce this play quite simply. Good story & good plot elements coming together to form a perfect ‘trap’ for central character Khady – all this with fast pacing & a great ending! I only read AF, but would love to see a production.
