Overview

SOLD OUT!!

Past and present collide in this vibrant tribute to sisterhood

Two generations of sisters navigate class, race, love and family on “Mud Row,” an area in the East End of West Chester, Pennsylvania. Regine must decide the fate of a house she never wanted, the same house where Toshi’s been squatting for three months. Elsie is willing to do anything to move up in the world, while her sister Frances is willing to risk her life to change it. Beneath the roof of one house, generations apart, these women must confront their shared legacies, and each other, in this riveting, humorous, and hopeful story about the love between sisters from one of America’s most vital voices.

Tony-Award nominee Dominique Morisseau deftly shifts between past and present to paint a moving portrait of family legacy.

“This rich, powerful, and lyrical drama demands to be seen”

—Broadway World

“[Director Rachel Dickson’s] staging captures how history lives through the walls of the house.”

—Houston Press
