Berko review: FENCES @ Karamu
by Roy Berko 03 Oct '18

03 Oct '18

*•••••••••••••••••••••••••••* *Capsule judgment: As is the case in all of August Wilson’s Pittsburgh cycle plays, “Fences” is both a revealing history lesson and a snapshot of the black experience in this country. It is a well-performed, important play, which deserves attendance by not only African American but also white audiences. * *To read the entire review go to: **www.royberko.info* <http://www.royberko.info>*. ** To read the capsule judgements of the other Cleveland reviewers go to: **www.clevelandtheaterreviews.com* <http://www.clevelandtheaterreviews.com> *••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••*
