Twilight Café [The Last Breakfast]: "At last! A play about Caribbean men and women as we are NOW! Blood bursting through history, primal fears, contemporary gender wars, the unexamined cliches of masculinity lagging far behind the new feminine, the collapse of the performative in gender roles and formations now rendered obsolete - Tony Hall's Twilight Cafe is a brilliant and harrowing sexual embrace. The secularism of the post-post-modern, Orisha worship, soucouyants, hidden duennes and blue Carnival devils merge in a dance of no-death that cuts to the heart of the vast chasm of incomprehension between men and women."

Raymond Ramcharitar Trinidad Express Wednesday June 26th, 2002 Flag Woman: It is the night before the carnival starts and Blind Miss B, an aging flag woman, is forced to confront, with reluctance, the life-long demons trapped in her head.
