'Lynn Nottage has packed so much life, love and history into her panoramic memory play… No matter how pain-filled and obstacle-ridden this tale of the coming-of-age of an adolescent African-American girl in 1950s Brooklyn might be, what drives this play is the pervasive sense of life as a great and exhilarating feast – a cornucopia of passion, imagination, knowledge, experience and yes, confusion, too'
