Cassandra Medley's play revolves around Rene, her sister Cerise, and her daughter Gwen. All work at Thurston Corrections Corporation, "a residence for immigrants to stay until returned to their countries." Revelations occur: surveillance cameras film terribly upsetting things done to women detainees. The drama raises large questions but assumes prior knowledge about America's criminalization of undocumented immigrants. Sylvia M'Lafi Thompson heads an uneven cast with not much range of emotions. Overall, though, this is theater with a socially conscious pulse. Worth a try.
