Show: Duat

“shimmering harmony…an exploration of life and what lies beyond…a sumptuously homemade production.”

Ben Brantley, The New York Times

“Put on your fanciest heels and strut over to the Connelly Theater…If you have loved Jomama Jones as a soul diva, you will lose your mind for her as a kind and encouraging teacher.”

Helen Shaw, Time Out New York

“Jones’s…exuberantly odd concoction combines personal and communal histories with Egyptian mysticism, a passionate ode to libraries, and meditations on afterlives of all kinds…delightfully fantastical”

Miriam Felton-Dansky, The Village Voice

“Afterwards, the word that kept spinning in my head as I wandered to the subway…was ‘joyous’…DUAT is fierce, funny and mournful; a sung, sometimes whispered, ode to race, queerness and difference.”

Tom Wicker, Exeunt Magazine
