Zora Reviews

DC Theater Arts- Recommended

"...This year’s work, showing at Anacostia Arts Center in Southeast DC, is Laurence Holder’s Zora, the namesake title explicating the legacy of Zora Neale Hurston, figurehead of the Harlem Renaissance. Director S. Robert Morgan and Assistant Director Youri Kim bring to this small theater a production high in amplitude. Though carried on the shoulders of only two actors, the presence of those who contributed to the greater movement of the Harlem Renaissance, and the legacy of Hurston, is brought through in honor and grace."

MD Theatre Guide- Highly Recommended

"...Leaving this production, I knew, that in Deroly, I’d seen a performer who left absolutely everything on stage as she sought to pay tribute to a legendary writer who during her professional lifetime deserved a far more memorable final chapter."
