CLYBOURNE PARK

ARVADA CENTER

Arvada, CO

"A savagely funny and insightful time bomb.” - The Hollywood Reporter

The scene is one house on Clybourne Street in Chicago’s South Side. In 1959, a Black family moves in. In 2009, a white family does. In between, everything changes - attitudes, demographics, and property values. Winner of both the Pulitzer Prize and the Tony Award for Best Play, Clybourne Park is a razor-sharp satire about the politics of race, housing, and gentrification.

Loosely inspired by Lorraine Hansberry's A Raisin in the Sun, Bruce Norris's biting, dark comedy takes on the specter of gentrification in our communities, leaving no stone unturned in the process.
