Clyde's Reviews

Theatre Bloom- Highly Recommended

"...If you've never seen a Lynn Nottage play, you're in for an emotional treat. Nottage's work presents powerful messages without slamming them in your face in a preachy-soapbox style. She tells compelling stories, many of which are all too relatable; all of which are deeply fomented with heart and effervescent soul, earnest humanity, and slick humor that does keep the balance between the heavier topics into which she delves. Director Rikki Howie Lacewell manages to keep the balance between the interactions of the characters on an even keel- letting the humor soar, the heavier gravitational pulling moments weigh you down, and the more Zen moments mellow you out and keep you focused."
