Will they open a business, send Beneatha to medical school or move to an all-white suburb?

This fast-paced, bilingual fable about the joys and perils of being the hero of your own story was proclaimed “revelatory” by the San Francisco Chronicle.  SCR is thrilled to welcome back Herbert Siguenza of Culture Clash to play Jose Quijano.
