A spin-off of Lorraine Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun, this razor-sharp satire takes a jab at race relations, gender roles, and inclusion in a fictional Chicago neighborhood. The play begins in 1959 as a black family moves into a white enclave. Act Two takes us back to the same house in 2009 as gentrification sets in and the roles are reversed. What happens? Find out in the play The Washington Post deemed “one of its feistiest, funniest evenings in years.”
