CLYBOURNE PARK

About the show

Directed by Giovanna Sardelli (BSC’s The North Pool and Lord of the Flies), Clybourne Park is a co-production with Vermont’s Dorset Theatre Festival (Dina Janis, Artistic Director). Winner of the 2011 Pulitzer Prize and 2012 Tony Award for Best Play, Clybourne Park is a provocative and wickedly funny play about race, real estate and American values. Act One takes place where the 1959 A Raisin in the Sun leaves off: with a white couple selling their home to a black family and causing uproar among their neighbors. Act Two takes place fifty years later with a black family selling the house to a white family who believe in urban gentrification – or do they?
