"Sadly had no idea who Josiah Henson was before Cassel Miles introduced me to his story. Author, abolitionist, minister, born into slavery before escaping to freedom in Ontario, founder of a settlement for fugitive slaves, the first African American to appear on a Canadian stamp and so much more.

"I hope the show continues to thrill and edify all of the hopefully many who attend, my friend.  It was an honour and a privilege to witness your Opening Night. Thank you for honouring Josiah’s life and journey, by livening his honour and his strength in overcoming extreme adversity and inhumanity. What an achievement!"

"Cassel Miles imbues his characters with an elegance, a courtliness and a gentle pride. This is especially true of Josiah Henson.

A MUST SEE!! CASSEL MILES is JOSIAH HENSON. This creative play, relying on the superb acting of Cassel Miles, his dancing, movement and incredible voice work, makes it easy to begin to feel that you do know who Henson was and what motivated him.


Rosemary Sadlier - Author, past President O.B.H.S., ++

This is one of the best solo shows I've seen. It should be on large stages across the country.


Tracey Erin-Smith - Founder SOULO Theatre

Amazing piece of theatre. Mesmerizing!
