"In BLESSED ASSURANCE, a play about blacks and whites working through their differences to make a small, southern corner of the world a better place, we have Charlotte playwright Laddy Sartin's best work to date…Sartin has a deft ear for the language we denizens of Dixie call English. In BLESSED ASSURANCE, he puts the language to the best use: promoting harmony.“ —Charlotte Observer. ”BLESSED ASSURANCE“ is a powerful, thought-provoking play…and it should be required viewing for all Mississippians.” —Hattiesburg American. “This work is a masterpiece from a storyteller at his best…If you love great stories that have you constantly on the edge of your seat and your heart, you simply must see this play."
— Concord (N.C.) Tribune
