Em sua estreia na dramaturgia, Dani Balbi traz ao público um texto marcado pela urgência e pela força. Mãe, preta, reincidente põe em cena a violência contra a população periférica brasileira a partir de um invejável manejo cênico. É dessa maneira que a obra se constrói através de camadas múltiplas: a violência dos fatos é construída a partir da violência presente nas palavras, nas marcações teatrais e nas rubricas.
