Second Stage Theatre presents Lydia R. Diamond's play, SMART PEOPLE, beginning previews tonight, January 27, at Second Stage Theatre's Tony Kiser Theatre (305 West 43rd street). The production's opening night is set for Thursday, February 11, 2016.

The New York premiere production of SMART PEOPLE, the new play by LYDIA R. DIAMOND (Stick Fly),directed by Tony® Award winner KENNY LEON (A Raisin in the Sun, The Wiz Live!) stars MAHERSHALA ALI(House of Cards), JOSHUA JACKSON (The Affair), ANNE SON (My Generation), and TESSA THOMPSON (Creed).

The quest for love, achievement and identity is universal, but what role does race play in the story of our lives? On the eve of Obama's first election, four Harvard intellectuals find themselves entangled in a complex web of social and sexual politics in this provocative and funny new play by Lydia R. Diamond.
