In 1959, a white couple’s sale of their Chicago home to the Black Younger family sparks a dispute over neighborhood integration and the suicide of the sellers’ son. Fifty years later, a Black housing board and a white couple clash over demolishing and rebuilding the same house; the coda returns to 1957 and the son’s final night. The two acts reuse the same actors in different roles.
Politician Bill Pulvar and his wife Judy confront the fallout from a sex scandal, in a comic drama examining gender issues and marriage.
Four men convicted of sex offenses live together in a group home in downstate Illinois. A former student visits Fred to confront him about abuse, while changing restrictions threaten the residents' routines and a parole violation deepens the conflict; a later confrontation ends in violence and a death.
With Adam Smith as narrator, the play follows 18th-century American Jim Trumpett, born outside marriage and raised in a brothel, as he discovers The Wealth of Nations and embraces capitalism. A contemporary scene at a G8 summit connects his story to present-day economic thinking after the 2008 financial crisis.
