	When I Come to Die Condemned murderer Damon "D" Robinson (Fences' Chris Chalk) was supposed to die. He didn't, despite the best efforts of the State—three needles and a team of doctors, and for some damn reason, he still didn't go down. Understandably, D would like to know why—before the limbo he's been suspended in by this unexpected stay of execution drives him out of his mind. In this modest drama, playwright Nathan Louis Jackson (Broke-ology) further hones his gift for warmly witty conversation and intimate communions between lost souls. His steely-nerved willingness to let the show die slowly down without much of a final beat feels both brave and frustrating. Wanting to know more is a good thing; but we've got to know something about this guy if we're going to proceed from mere sympathy to genuine, fourth-wall-busting empathy.
