Reviews for Crumbs from the Table of Joy and other plays

'Complex and thought provoking' * Chicago Tribune on 'Crumbs From the Table of Joy' * 'Arresting... chock-full of rich incisive writing' * Village Voice on 'Por'Knockers' * 'Fiercely imaginative. By casting light on this obscured, somewhat fanciful tale of an African in King Louis's court, Nottage reveals contemporary truths about the racial divide' * San Jose Mercury on 'Las Meninas' *
