So so good. Captures the “event” aspect of live theatre. It’s a living, breathing thing that knows you’re in the room, and makes you glad you are.
Our ears are blessed any time Tarell Alvin McCraney writes. But you already knew that.
Also, Alana Arenas is iconic. But you already knew that, too.

Happy place! 📚🎭 Love jamming out at Kokandy Book Club! I get to put my olde speech + debate brain to work whilst also rehearsing to eventually become Man in Chair.
Thanks to all who joined us for HAMLET 💀🎶
