[Bulrusher’s] originality elicits many striking insights, affording a new expressive depth to old ideas of protest and liberation that can usefully be refreshed for contemporary sensibilities. Davis’ voice…registers clearly. The playwright conveys with some welcome complexity the power of many variants of intimacy, with their contending and complementary strands of anger and desire, rebellion and love. —Myron Meisel, The Hollywood Reporter
The strange juxtaposition of the prosaic trials of adolescence and the urgent radicalism of the family politics is also what gives the show its own distinctive identity. That’s the burden Ms. Davis had to bear, trying to move through the choppy waters of self-discovery while being asked to carry a weighty sense of racial and cultural history. —Charles Isherwood, The New York Times
