”The director Leah C. Gardiner delivers a warm and inspiriting revival of the landmark poetic drama, with a gloriously interdependent cast. […] While I remember ‘Colored Girls’ as a series of vivid star turns, this version feels like an endlessly fluid collaboration.”
- Ben Brantley, New York Times


”An ecstatic new production, directed by Leah C. Gardiner. [The audience] is prodded into solemn joy, thrilled by song and dance, and… ushered into the state of bright, shattering anguish that the play’s title promises.”
- The New Yorker
