Review: LINES IN THE DUST at Matrix Theatre
by Amanda Callas - November 08, 2023
Chronicling the story of school residency fraud in the affluent township of Millburn, New Jersey, Lines in the Dust fearlessly tackles uncomfortable, vital issues of identity, education, class, race, and access to opportunity.

Lines in the Dust is a significant tour de force.
