January 31st – March 1st, 2014Winner: 2012 Tony Award for Best Play. Winner: 2011 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Home is where the heart – and history – is. Jokes fly and hidden agendas unfold as two vastly different generations of characters tip-toe the delicate dance of social politics. Two seminal events – 50 years apart – are at the crux of the conflict in the same North Chicago house. This rich and and lightning-quick comedy is every bit as provocative as it is entertaining – as it cleverly spins the events of A Raisin in the Sun into an unforgettable new story about race and real estate in America.
