Event Description
“A RAISIN IN THE SUN” by Lorraine Hansberry is coming in March of 2009 starring Irma P. Hall as Lena Younger.
"A RAISIN IN THE SUN" tells the story of a family living and struggling on Chicago's South Side in the 1950s. It is a fiercely moving portrait of people whose hopes and dreams are constantly deferred. The universal themes are very much relevant today.
It was the first play written by an African-American woman to be produced on Broadway.
March of 2009 marks the 50th year anniversary of the Play's Broadway debut.
It was made into a major motion picture in 1961 starring legends Sidney Portier and Ruby Dee.
