‘The nuance of being a Black woman in America’: Is God Is turns righteous rage into gory horror

Actors Vivica A Fox, Kara Young and Mallori Johnson on subverting revenge tropes as Aleshea Harris’s play storms on to the screen

Kara Young remembers the fervor around Is God Is’s off-Broadway run in 2018. Playwright Aleshea Harris’s revenge tale ran at New York’s Soho Rep theater from February through May of that year. Young was performing in a different show at the time, but she knew she needed to see Harris’s play by any means necessary.

As soon as she saw it, Young easily understood why: “It blew my mind. Those characters have stayed in my spirit since 2018.”
