Fresh off Tony and Pulitzer wins, Purpose is “a thumping, riveting, guns-blazing, major new American play” (NY Daily News). As The New York Times said: “Purpose showcases Jacobs-Jenkins’ vivid language, spitfire dialogue and sweeping sense of American history… you may have trouble catching your breath from laughing so hard.”
“Purpose”, now playing at La Jolla Playhouse through June 7, is a Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning play that takes one messy, snowed-in family weekend and turns it into something hilariously chaotic, emotionally sharp, and painfully recognizable.
Enter for a chance to win a pair of tickets to most awarded play of 2025, Purpose, by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins. Fresh from winning the Tony Award for Best Play, see the play at La Jolla Playhouse.
La Jolla Playhouse has revealed the cast and creative team for the West Coast premiere of Purpose, by Tony Award winner Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, directed by Delicia Turner Sonnenberg.
