About this listen
Tony Award® nominee Joe Morton and stage veteran Sally Murphy star in this award-winning play based on a tragic true story. Using excerpts from real newspaper transcripts, Brutal Imagination reexamines the case of Susan Smith, a white mother who falsely accused a Black man of carjacking her and kidnapping her two young children. The riveting story, written by poet and Pulitzer Prize finalist Cornelius Eady presents listeners with a unique perspective on the harrowing nine days between the fabricated crime and Smith’s eventual confession. As illuminating and resonant today as ever, Brutal Imagination confronts the patterns of injustice that have haunted African American men for decades.

The narration is a haunting example of the reality that many live inside the life and death game of polarities. I listened with intent interest as to how the end will be and I was vindicated.
It's saddening to know that this is not nonfiction but a sliver of the cold hard reality of those who live as prey and hunter. This is a probing twist that cannot help but to be jarring and horrific.
