An American classic! A life insurance payout provides a path for Lena Younger to move her family from their cramped apartment on the South Side of Chicago to an affordable home in a historically white neighborhood. But racial intolerance threatens to turn their American dream into heartbreak. This 1959 masterpiece “changed American theater forever” (New York Times) and continues to resonate in our hearts today. In partnership with Acts on Stage.
