Out of the Vineyard Reviews

DC Theater Arts- Recommended

"...Out of the Vineyard, now playing at Joe’s Movement Emporium in Mount Rainier, tells the mostly unremarked and under-exposed stories of the meticulous in-court efforts by African Americans to resist enslavement: efforts that took place — often successfully — within the courts of Prince George’s County, Maryland, prior to the Civil War and the Emancipation Proclamation."

MD Theatre Guide- Highly Recommended

"...Media Designer Luis Garcia adds the more visual facet of the story and gives audiences many of the prompts necessary to follow along with a tale that is just so hard to believe. “Out of the Vineyard” is a deeply reflective piece—an opportunity for people to learn something more about the legacy of slavery in the U.S.; to learn something truly consequential about the descendants who are left with the unthinkable memories transcribed; and to learn about the realities of an aspect of American history that just doesn’t get told."
