Staff Reviews


I'm paraphrasing when I say this, but when James Baldwin said that this was the play that brought the complexity of the African American life onto the stage, his words do not fall short. We have Hansberry to thank for her early conversations on race, religion, and class that have fortified the Americas.

— Makayla S

Description


When it was first produced in 1959, A Raisin in the Sun was awarded the New York Drama Critics Circle Award for that season and hailed as a watershed in American drama. A pioneering work by an African-American playwright, the play was a radically new representation of black life. A play that changed American theater forever.--The New York Times.
