*4.5
I’ve thought about this play a lot since I finished it and I can really see it as a NT production. The stage directions of the set are very vivid and puts you right there.

The build up of emotions and Rachel’s inner perspective was so well done. It is a very raw and intimate play that explores the extremes of how racial oppression was and still is.
