| This play was rewardingly action packed and very funny. I fell in love with one main actor, that made the whole evening worth while. I have been to previous Saturday plays at the Billie Holiday Theatre, this was my first Friday evening play and I enjoyed it so much I will change to Friday evenings. I felt more relaxed and comfortable with enough room to stretch out. I was very satisfied. I took my 15 year old son and he told me he like the Desire play the best. The play touched real life topics, and was very close to home. Outstanding stage atmosphere. I will use Zerve again for future programs. The service was excellent and time saving. Thank you. |

| Although this Play was highly recommended to me, I couldn't imagine something of this magnitude playing off Broadway. Way, way, way off-Broadway. Living in the suburbs, I was a bit reluctant to travel to downtown brooklyn to see a Play. I was so glad I made the trek.
I rate this Play alongside any of the Broadway shows I've seen. Magnificently performed. The actors were A+. Very professional, very real characters. I can't say enough about it. I was blown away. My only disappointment was to look around the theatre and see it not full to capacity. A play of this magnitude is deserving of a full audience. If you haven't seen it, run, don't walk to get your ticket before it leaves. |

| This was my second time visiting the Billie. The entire play was beautifully written and performed. Funny, sad, exciting, dramatic - it has a little of everything. As a New Orleans native, the parts of the play focusing on Katrina and the politics surrounding it were dead on - Thanks Jackie Alexander! And for the price, it's a real gem. Stop Off - Broadway for an evening and check out Brooklyn's finest community theatre: The Billie Holiday Theatre! |

| How do you spell E X C E L L E N T! It was the absolute best for the year. I believe since 6/06 I have seen 4 plays that ranged from ok to hum drum drum and offbeat, however, and to be precise if this were on Broadway with the same group of folk, I would have paid for the $100.00 seats and believe me I am 1 economical person : ).
Most definitely I was ecstatic and raved about it to the folk on my job hurrying them to catch this. The repoire of the characters was wonderful, the timing between Tyrone and his cousin was perfect. A standing ovation in my heart and action given the same, may I say salute'..
Loved it Please share with the group of actors because it was certainly on my heart to write to the Billie Holiday theatre.
