Playwright Bruce Norris's Clybourne Park isn't a Pulitzer Prize-winning drama for nothing. The play — featuring characters with ties to Lorraine Hansberry's Raisin in the Sun — takes a captivating look at the racial climate of a fictional Chicago neighborhood over the span of 50 years. Arguments first arise when a black family tries to move into the predominately white hood, and later when a white family tries to move into the same hood, which is now comprised of mostly black folk Real estate really shouldn't be this stressful. Can't we all just get along?
