RACE
Performing at GableStage (Jul 7 - Aug 5)
Runtime: 1 Hour 30 Minutes
Synopsis
The Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright tackles the biggest four-letter word of all... RACE! Two lawyers, one black one white, find themselves defending a wealthy white executive against the charge of raping a young black woman. The play poses blunt questions with provocative language that will leave everyone talking long after the lights go down.
"The dialogue is tasty, the confrontations spiky and the observations more than occasionally biting!"
