In response to overwhelming box office demand-and before its official opening performance tonight-the West Coast premiere of Bruce Norris's Clybourne Park has been extended through February 20 at American Conservatory Theater (A.C.T.). The five additional performances will take place on the following dates: Wednesday, February 16, at 8 p.m.; Thursday, February 17, at 8 p.m.; Friday, February 18, at 8 p.m.; Saturday, February 19, at 8 p.m.; and Sunday, February 20, at 2 p.m. Directed by Jonathan Moscone, this 'buzz-saw sharp new comedy' (The Washington Post) cleverly spins the events of A Raisin in the Sun to tell an unforgettable new story about race and real estate in America. Act I opens in 1959, as a white couple sells their home to a black family, causing uproar in their middle-class Chicago neighborhood. Act II transports us to the same house in 2009, when the stakes are different, but the debate is strikingly familiar.
