Winner of the 2011 Pulitzer Prize and London's Olivier Award for Best Play, Clybourne Park is described as the 'wickedly funny and fiercely provocative new play about race, real estate and the volatile values of each.' Clybourne Park explodes in two outrageous acts set 50 years apart. Act One takes place in 1959, as nervous community leaders anxiously 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. See the construction of the house in the theatre, from start to finish, below!
Preview performances for the Pulitzer Prize-winning play Clybourne Park will begin tonight on Broadway. The acclaimed work by Bruce Norris, and directed by Pam McKinnon, will have its official Opening Night at the Walter Kerr Theatre on Thursday, April 19, for a limited 16-week engagement.

You might go over a single moment once, or twice, or five times, or two hundred times. That one moment, which may have seemed interesting and thought-provoking at first, quickly becomes torturously mind-numbing. These tech rehearsals are where the work of designers, stage managers, actors, directors, and all manner of theater artists involved in a production comes together to create the play that audience members will experience just a few days later.
