Fairview by Jackie Sibblies Drury
An astounding new play about race and power in America, explored through the lens of a family drama.Grandma's birthday approaches. Beverly is organizing the perfect dinner, but everything seems doomed to go awry-the silverware is all wrong, the radio is on the fritz, and the rest of the family can't be bothered to lift a hand to help. And yet, what appears at first to be a standard family dramedy takes a sharp, sly turn into a startling examination of deep-seated paradigms about race in America.Marys Seacole (OBIE Award), Fairview (2019 Pulitzer Prize), and? are only a few of Jackie Sibblies Drury's plays. Drury's work has been developed at Sundance Film Festival, Bellagio Center for the Performing Arts, Ground Floor at Berkeley Rep, and Soho Rep. Among these are the Writer/Director Lab, New York Theatre Workshop, Bushwick Starr, LARK, and MacDowell Colony.
