NOTES Adult language
A composite shot of African America...with attitude. Through a riveting series of short plays and songs, this vaudeville defies stereotype as it explores a myriad of topics and places, from Northern Uganda to the American South, HIV to Condoleeza Rice. Swinging from the serious to the absurd, there's plenty to laugh and cry about in this powerful piece.

Reviews
"Point of Revue accentuates American injustice and inequality and focuses on providing live evidence that reveals the harsher side of humankind... the audience is left with a raw and realistic look at life, which includes the lewd and vulgar as well as the beautiful and noble."
--Skylar Kangas, sotanLIFE
