ABOUT THE SHOW
"A RAISIN IN THE SUN" is Lorraine Hansberry’s groundbreaking drama, a searing and timeless portrait of a family on Chicago’s South Side, and an American classic.
"A RAISIN IN THE SUN" is an answer to the poem from which the title is derived – Langston Hughes’ legendary poem, "Harlem."
When the Youngers see an opportunity to move to a new neighborhood, each member of the family must answer: What happens to a dream deferred?
“[A] pivotal play in the history of the American Black theatre.” – Newsweek
ABOUT NEW REPERTORY THEATRE
New Repertory Theatre (NRT) aims to be regionally focused, driven by diverse interests and stories drawn from the communities surrounding us. We will prioritize a collaborative process centered on new work, new voices, and creative programming in order to produce memorable, evocative performing arts experiences. NRT looks to broaden the theatre scene in greater Boston by giving voice and interpretation to stories and artists whose perspectives are often underrepresented, but whose experiences are relevant for everyone. We want to reimagine how this theatre company can best serve the community that includes both artists and the audience. New Rep remains committed to staging productions and events that speak to the vital ideas of our time. Inclusion, diversity, equity, accessibility, and accountability (IDEAA) will infuse every aspect of our work as we build community collaborations and give voice to the diverse interests of those communities. .
