Until 04 Sept
In the Blood, The Finborough, London
An urban American "riff" on Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter and shortlisted for the Pulitzer Prize, In the Blood is the story of Hester La Negrita, mother to five children, of five fathers, who makes a home beneath a bridge on the streets of New York. Hounded by her need to provide a better future for her family, she bargains her hopes on the only people left in her world, and comes up short. This raw, physical production of Suzan-Lori Parks' seminal work will take us to this world that exists on the flipside of the American Dream. Playwright Suzan-Lori Parks is one of the most exciting playwrights in American drama today, and the first African American woman to receive the Pulitzer Prize in Drama for the Broadway hit TopDog/UnderDog.
