BWW Review: MS. BLAKK FOR PRESIDENT at Steppenwolf Theatre Company
by Rachel Weinberg
- Jun 5, 2019
While MS. BLAKK FOR PRESIDENT's narrative flounders in certain points, the play's integrity never flounders. Watching the play unfold, there's no denying the relevance of the issues that Blakk faced in 1992 to today's society. But the play brilliantly conveys that resonance while also still maintaining a light-hearted and celebratory tone worthy of the story that it portrays.
