lanoirede: Danai Gurira saw Shuffle Along too. Fun fact those women have no idea who she is and only asked for a picture when she heard @themelaningawd point her out to me. #thewalkingdead #danaigurira #eclipsed #familiarph
tameishiap: Loved this show! Interesting seeing the difference in @danaigurira writings from @eclipsedbway and #FamiliarPH. Both are extremely funny and leaves and impact on your heart while Eclipse removes the blinders that we all have when it comes to events that happen outside of the US. Some of us may be informed but all the information we receive have been filtered in one way or another and filled with bias. Eclipsed gives you a first hand account of the women and their means of survival during a war. More important they give these women a voice and says their name! #SayHerName \nThe only thing that separates any of us is opportunity. \nThose 6 Tony nominations are more than well deserved! The entire cast is phenomenal! \u2764\ufe0f
itoaghayere: So excited to celebrate all the #LucilleLortelAwards nominees today and honored to be nominated alongside this gorgeous lady for our work in #FamiliarPH #family #forlife @phnyc

godslovenyc: We were thrilled to support and see @tamaratunie in #FamiliarPH tonight at @phnyc! Bravo!
thatskentertainment: FAMILIAR is an EXTRAORDINARY new play @PHnyc by playwright & actress ("The Walking Dead") @DanaiGurira who also is currently represented on Broadway with her equally- exceptional play @EclipsedBway...a REMARKABLE accomplishment! At its core this stunning, multi-layered play is about familial conflict but also taps into race, respect, forgiveness, understanding, acceptance, misdirected-anger, love, heritage and more. It reinforces that no matter where you're from, at heart, every culture can seem familiar. Flawless direction and an incredible cast & production: #FamiliarPH is a must-see.
3d_dorito: Everyone should go see this play, so good. 2 @danaigurira plays in a week! #blessed #familiarph @phnyc #nyc #offbroadway

angelicainspired: @danaigurira's "FAMILIAR" playing at @phnyc is brilliant! Actors - excellent! Script moves seamlessly! Set & lighting design is gorgeous (from day to night)! (*_*) If her goal with this piece is to leave the audience questioning the validity of what they've been told about their "roots" and ancestral history, she definitely succeeded - ha! So thankful to witness the work done by all involved with this piece. Thank you. <3\n\n#theatre\n#DanaiGurira \n#BuyBlack\n#theater\n#Broadway\n#OffBroadway\n#BroadwayBlack\n#FirstDayOfSpring\n#FamiliarPH\n#TheWalkingDead... Turned THEATRE lol
