"The Exonerated is an intriguing and thought-provoking play that demonstrates the human cost of our flawed justice system. Written by Jessica Blank and Erik Jensen, this compelling documentary-style drama gives voice to people who were convicted of crimes they did not commit and who spent years behind bars before being exonerated. In The Black Theatre Troupe's incredibly powerful production, the strong cast and spot-on direction create more than just a series of courtroom stories, they deliver an intimate, moving examination of injustice, perseverance, hope, and redemption." - Gil Benbrook, TalkinBroadway.com (click here to read the complete review)
"This is a production of real craft in service of real urgency: beautifully directed, powerfully acted, and unwilling to let its audience leave comfortable. THE EXONERATED asks hard questions about who our justice system prioritizes. Black Theatre Troupe answers with theatre that demands to be seen and with a force that leaves the audience shaken, grateful, and angry in roughly equal measure." - Herbert Paine, Broadway World (click here to read the complete review)
