Reviews are in for the world premiere of Charly Evon Simpson's new comedy sandblasted. The Vineyard Theatre and WP Theater production began previews Off-Broadway February 6 and opened February 27 with a run through March 13.
Marinda Anderson, Brittany Bellizeare, Andy Lucien, and Rolonda Watts star in the work, directed by Summer L. Williams, about two women on a sandy search for something that may not be real and their journey as they follow ADAH, a celebrity-turned-wellness-maven.
The creative team for the production includes scenic designer Matt Saunders, costume designer Montana Levi Blanco, lighting designer Stacey Derosier, sound designer Sadah Espii Proctor, hair and wig designer Cookie Jordan, dramaturg Nissy Aya, and casting director Kelly Gillespie.
Breaking the Binary Theatre is co-producing the world premiere with Playwrights Horizons, about a group of queer co-workers in the age of climate change.
