Reviews:
Perhaps the most heart-warming piece of the evening was Tyrone Baptiste’s Frank and Joy (directed by Singley); a moving tribute to his grandparents exploring the nature of bereavement, and of finally having to say goodbye to the one we love. Sensitively played by David Penrose and Jan Rawson, the ‘twist’ at the end was both gentle and heart-breaking. - Daniel McCrohon, Portsmouth News 2023

In the middle ground, identity and heritage is often mixed together. In this autobiographical piece, questions of what it means to be black and how do we honour our heritage is raised. The middle ground is the harsh reality we all try to avoid but it's always here lurking.
