Abstract
Review of Wilbury Theatre Group’s INVISIBLE UPSOUTH.
Stories of police brutality are all over the news these days, but they may still seem like something that happens elsewhere. In INVISIBLE UPSOUTH, Wilbury Theatre Company's latest in their New Works program, the headlines move right into Providence and we're forced to examine the reality of life as a person of color in the liberal Northeast. Told half in explosive spoken word and half in traditional scenes, this play manages to convey a lot without coming off as didactic or cliche'. In particular, it shines a light on experiences that probably most people of color have had, that would likely make many white people say I had never thought about that.
