[NEohioPAL] Praise for OBJECTIVELY/REASONABLE

[Playwrights Local via NEohioPAL]

The reviews are in for Playwrights Local’s new work,
“Objectively/Reasonable: A Community Response to the Shooting of Tamir
Rice, 11/22/14.” Directed by Terrence Spivey, this documentary play
addresses the impact and aftermath of the Tamir Rice shooting, expressing
unheard voices from the Cudell neighborhood and Greater Cleveland. Created
by an ensemble of playwrights, “Objectively/Reasonable” is a collage of
original monologues based on interviews with legal experts, social critics,
and everyday people.



"A 90-minute work that is electric, probing and uncomfortably raw...deeply
moving...It discusses and dissects and sets the notion of 'a post-racial
society' on fire. This is a play that needs to be seen."
— *The Plain Dealer

"This is a work that should travel to theaters all over the country; it
needs to be seen and heard by everyone who sincerely wants police brutality
to cease in America...A catharsis."
— *Cool Cleveland

“A must-see experience for anyone interested in the real world around them.”

"The window that has opened for all to view the inequity of law enforcement
activity in the less advantaged Cleveland neighborhoods. It is a show that
begs to be seen by police officers and citizens alike."
