"A subversive, seriously funny new theater piece by the adventurous playwright Young Jean Lee. . . . Ms. Lee does not shy away from prodding the audience's racial sensitivitiesor insensitivitiesin a style that is sometimes sly and subtle, sometimes as blunt as a poke in the eye."Charles Isherwood, The New York Times
"Lee is a facetious provocateur; she does whatever she can to get under our skinswith laughs and with raw, brutal talk . . . [and with] so ingenious a twist, such a radical bit of theatrical smoke and mirrors, that we are forced to confront our own preconceived notions of race."Hilton Als, The New Yorker
