"I’ve been reading all of the reviews. I have to admit yours was my favorite. Kyle, you picked up on some of the show’s smaller details and you considered intention along with execution—a testimony both to personal insight and good reporting. You realized the goal was to tell a Black man’s story without a trauma narrative. That was extremely important to me. I’m so happy the right eyes recognized it. Also, what a way you have with words. Your prose made me want to watch my own play again." 

- Christian St. Croix (Playwright)

"I've done a lot of interviews and you actively captured the nuance of a lot of the issues better than any reporter I've spoken to." 

- Madeline Sayet (Playwright, Performer, Executive Director of the Yale Indigenous Performing Arts Program)
