Between Riverside and Crazy is an acclaimed dark comedy play by Stephen Adly Guirgis that won the 2015 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. The story follows Walter "Pops" Washington (memorably played by Stephen McKinley Henderson), a widowed, stubborn ex-cop who is fighting eviction from his massive, rent-stabilized Riverside Drive apartment. Surrounded by a colorful array of ex-cons, church ladies, and his newly paroled son, Pops must navigate tense negotiations with his former police force colleagues who want him out.
