A Raisin’ on Up playing at The Tank in their 98-Seat Theater - Tickets Here
A Raisin’ on Up, the Game Show is a generational play that examines a Black family navigating societal definitions of success, wealth, and survival. Structured through the tense, satirical lens of a high-stakes TV game show, A Raisin' on Up challenges assumptions about the American Dream while delivering hilarious, thought-provoking drama.
