WINNER OF BOTH THE 2011 PULITZER PRIZE AND TONY AWARD FOR BEST PLAY
Clybourne Park is a bitingly funny and fiercely provocative new play about the volatile combination of race and real estate.
In 1959, a white couple sells their home to a black family (the fictional Younger family from A Raisin in the Sun), causing an uproar in their middle-class neighborhood. Fifty years later in 2009, the same house is changing hands again, but the stakes have changed.
As neighbors wage a hilarious and pitched battle over territory and legacy, Clybourne Park reveals just how far our ideas about race and gentrification have evolved.
Clybourne Park is made possible in part by a grant from Arkansas Black Hall of Fame Foundation, a component fund of the Arkansas Community Foundation.
