VIDEO: First Look At THE NICETIES At Geffen Playhouse

At an elite East Coast university, an ambitious young black student (Jordan Boatman) and her esteemed white professor (Lisa Banes) meet to discuss a paper the college junior is writing about the American Revolution. They're both liberal. They're both women. They're both brilliant. But very quickly, discussions of grammar and Google turn to race and reputation, and before they know it, they're in dangerous territory neither of them had foreseen - and facing stunning implications that can't be undone, threatening to ruin both their lives.
