Branden Jacobs-Jenkins' APPROPRIATE to Make West Coast Premiere at the Taper This Fall

By:

"Appropriate" by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, directed by Eric Ting, will make its West Coast premiere at Center Theatre Group's Mark Taper Forum, beginning previews September 23 for an October 4 opening. The production will play through November 1, 2015.

As estranged family members convene in Arkansas to settle the patriarch's estate, they discover in the ruin and clutter of their crumbling plantation home an album filled with disturbing photos. Sparks fly when the siblings debate possible family ties to this unwanted legacy, and their tenuous reunion brings up old rivalries and family secrets that soon toss them all into a tailspin.
