MickeyJoTheatre Liberation (James Earl Jones Theatre, Broadway) - ★★★★★ REVIEW
One of the best pieces of theatre Mickey-Jo saw during his most recent trip to New York was LIBERATION, an extraordinary new play from playwright Bess Wohl, directed by Whitney White.
The play, which sees a version of the playwright trying to reconcile a younger, empowered version of her late mother with the woman she knew, examines a consciousness raising group for women's liberation in 1970s Ohio and features a scene in which the entire female company sit onstage while nude.
Check out what Mickey-Jo thought of this play, currently playing at the James Earl Jones theatre on Broadway, and share your own reactions to it below...
