Bronzeville at The Los Angeles Theatre Center

LA Weekly - Somewhat Recommended

"...There are solid performances from supporting players, including Milner, a spot-on Aaron Jennings as Jodie's musician brother, CeCelia Antoinette as the elderly great-grandmother and Kellie Dantzler as Jodie's nurturing wife. Landon H. Lewis Jr. steals the spotlight as a local bartender in one of the play's best-written scenes, and another bar scene enacted entirely in mime is a comedic highlight. Perry, who reprises his pivotal role from the drama's 2009 production, exudes a strong skilled presence, but the performance I saw lacked spontaneity and the production suffers for it. Manabat also needs to buff up his credibility considerably, especially in the crucial interrogation scenes."
