Brilliant true story, amazingly talented cast. A compelling look into what it means to be an actor, especially a Black actor. 10/10.

The problem is, and it is a big one..
The play itself sucks. And this sort of for profit propagation of antiwhite racism garbage belongs in the bin.

Great actors!
Great actors, lame script and weak direction. The horrendous over the top music ruined it for me.
