I recently saw Pass Over in previews on Broadway, and I am so glad I was able to experience the energy of live theater again! Pass Over was written by Antoinette Chinoye Nwandu in 2018 and took inspiration from Waiting for Godot by Samuel Beckett.

Overall, the play follows the theme of making your way out through profanity and slang terms warped into poetic philosophical questions.
