Unlike 'To Kill a Mockingbird,' there is no simple lesson to be drawn from Clybourne Park, only the realization that racial reconciliation in America still has a long way to go.
An off-shoot of Lorraine Hansberry's A Raisin in the Sun, this wickedly funny and frank play about territory won both the 2011 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the 2012 Tony Award for Best Play. Clybourne Park's two acts are set 50 years apart. Act One takes place in 1959 as nervous community leaders try to stop the sale of a home to a black family. Act Two is set in the same house in the present day as the now predominantly African-American neighborhood battles to hold its ground in the face of gentrification.
Clybourne Park, a new play by Bruce Norris that defies definition, is sure to instigate much debate on social issues - past and present. It plays in the Severson Theatre tonight, September 12 - 29.
