Appropriate tells the story of the estranged members of the Lafayette family, who return to their crumbling Arkansas plantation home to settle the accounts of their recently deceased patriarch. The unearthing of a shocking object sends the family spiraling into the dark history of their own repressed memories and careening into the tainted past of the American South. Jacobs-Jenkins brilliantly repurposes the usual tropes of classics such as Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Long Day's Journey Into Night, and-more recently-August Osage County, to depict American familial dysfunction triggered by both our collective personal legacies as well as our national history.
