Inadvertently, they have sold their house to the neighbourhood’s first black family. Fifty years later, in 2009, a young white couple buys the same house in what is now a predominantly black neighbourhood. In both instances, racial tensions escalate and the stakes are raised. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award for Best Play, Clybourne Park is a razor-sharp satire about the politics of race. Join us post show to discuss the themes of the play with the cast and director. Pre theatre supper served in The Bistro.
