Clybourne Park

Winner of the 2011 Pulitzer Prize and the 2012 Tony Award for Best Play, Clybourne Park is an unforgettable new story about race, class, and real estate in America. A spin-off of Lorraine Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun, the play begins in 1959 as a black family moves into a white neighborhood. Act Two takes us back to the same house in 2009 as gentrification sets in and the roles are reversed. This rich and lightning-quick comedy is every bit as provocative as it is entertaining.
