The political is always personal and I highly enjoyed the wild ride Burbano takes us on through two sisters reckoning with identity, and what secrets DNA testing unleashes. Through the sisters, we experience both the humor and pain of complex narratives of colorism in families, discovering DNA relatives on Facebook, and dating the well-intentioned white man. This play will leave audiences asking questions of what happens after we open the chaotic box of family history, and how it transforms us.
