A poetic yet scathing deep dive into racism in Canada and around the world...this play asks certain questions that will stick with you. --CBC Arts The Negroes Are Congregating will be eye-opening for some and cathartic for others. It is a much-needed wake-up call on the realities of Black existence in a society we fondly think of as progressive for everyone. --Mooney on Theatre The Negroes Are Congregating is a relentless, in your face, melange of sketch, vignette, and spoken word that takes you to church and into the Black psyche living with anti-Black racism, all without missing a beat. The play is intricate, funny, contemplative, and incredibly fast-paced. --byblacks.com
