Review: FAIRVIEW at Ground Floor Theatre
by Joni Lorraine - Mar 4, 2025
Fair warning: Jackie Sibblies Drury's FAIRVIEW isn't your typical night at the theatre. The play starts out looking like a normal family comedy but quickly turns into something else entirely. Imagine sitting down for what seems like a standard TV sitcom about a Black family, and then suddenly everything you thought you knew gets turned upside down. It's funny, shocking, and confronting.
