2002 Pulitzer Prize for Drama

In this Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece by “the most consistently inventive, and venturesome, American dramatist working today” (The New York Times), brothers Lincoln and Booth struggle for the upper hand as they grapple with unresolved inheritances and how to play the cards they’ve been dealt. At once a rollicking portrait of sibling rivalry, a probing exploration of the complexity of family, and a resonant allegory of American identity, this can’t miss production will have you howling with laughter one moment and on the edge of your seat the next.
“…an utterly mesmerizing evening of theater…” – Variety
“The issues are gripping, the characters are dynamite…a must-see play.” – Backstage
Run time: approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes with one intermission​
