Bad Kreyòl, written by Tony Award-nominated playwright Dominique Morisseau and directed by Stori Ayers, follows first-generation Haitian American Simone as she returns to Haiti to fulfill her grandmother's dying wish and reconnect with her Haitian-born cousin Gigi. When misconceptions and misunderstandings lead to dangerous mistakes, both cousins are forced to reckon with what they know — and don't know — about their family and themselves. A New York Times Critic's Pick, the play explores cultural identity, language, and the bonds of family through the lens of the Haitian diaspora. This DC premiere marks the production's first staging following its celebrated Off-Broadway run.
