by Lorraine Hansberry

The Washington Post hails A Raisin of the Sun as “one of a handful of great American plays” and The New York Times said it “changed American theater forever.” This modern classic, remembered from the film starring Sidney Poitier, is a fiercely moving portrayal of an African American family on Chicago's south side struggling to realize the dream of a better life. Fifty years after its premiere, the themes in this inspiring, moving and poignant tale are as relevant and universal as they were then.

On the Playhouse MainStage - Village Green, Weston
