On the docks of late 18th-century Rhode Island, two runaway slaves, Adjua and Dembi, plan a desperate and daring run to freedom. When a chance encounter triggers an unexpected collision of worlds, painful truths are uncovered, and the brutality of past crimes spills into the next generation. American theater needs more plays like Naomi Wallace's THE LIQUID PLAIN - by which I mean works that are historical, epic and poetic. -Time Out New York Elegant ... Wallace is as much a poet as she is a playwright. -The New Yorker A powerful, cathartic reminder that true freedom always starts in the soul and proceeds outward, transforming - and exalting - everything in its path. -Talkin' Broadway Naomi Wallace is the master when it comes to 'translating' History into Theater: she does not dramatize 'facts' but lays bare emotional truths. -Robin D G Kelley, historian and social critic
