The Clarks are the very picture of Southern success. Father built an empire with his funeral home. Mother is a big-city model reigning over small-town expectations as she grooms her younger son to be the next jazz legend. Grandmother has choice words for them all. But when their rebellious teenage son brings home a girl not up to Mother’s standards, façades crumble, truths come out—and the Clarks face the one thing they never expected: each other.
Directed by the legendary Phylicia Rashad and featuring a jazz and blues-inspired score by Nona Hendryx, Charles Randolph-Wright’sBLUE is the fiercely witty, deeply honest play about a very rich family with a wealth of secrets.
