From the boundary-pushing, Obie Award-winning playwright Branden Jacobs-Jenkins (An Octoroon), this electrifying comedy is a meditation on impermanence, nostalgia, and isolation. Anticipating their 20-year high school reunion, fueled by adult jungle juice and pot, four former classmates reminisce at a porch pre-party that hangs on a porous border with the other side. Directed by Co-Artistic Director Morgan Green with wit and heart (filmed version of Fat Ham, School Pictures, Eternal Life Part 1), The Comeuppance features The Wilma’s HotHouse in collaboration with Woolly Mammoth Theatre’s Acting Company.
