A Raisin in the Sun By Lorraine Hansberry
Aug. 22–Sept. 7, 2025
The Younger family dreams of more. But in 1950s Chicago, racism, redlining, and hard luck sear even the smallest hopes before they can take root. Lorraine Hansberry’s timeless classic crackles with anger, tenderness, and the stubborn fight for a better life. Will their dreams dry up? Or will they explode?
A Raisin in the Sun is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.com
