The winds of change are blowing through the elite ivy-league halls of one of America's most prestigious universities. For students Isaiah, Connor, Annabelle, Omar and Stacy, on the precipice of starting their adult lives, life is no longer about getting through a political science lecture with a hangover and auditioning for the school acapella group. Confronting the injustices of the past is top of the agenda – starting with the fact that the college is named after a notorious defender of slavery.
And in this pressure cooker environment, everyone has to pick a side.
Beneath the passionate speeches, do old prejudices die hard? What happens to friendship and love amidst frank debate?
Jamie Bogyo's whip-smart, hilarious and bracing new play takes us into the volatile quicksand of campus politics in the dying months of Obama's presidency, and asks how – and if – we can escape the past.
Roy Alexander Weise, whose recent productions include The Hot Wing King and Nine Night (National Theatre) and Untitled F*ck M*ss S**gon Play (Royal Exchange/Young Vic/Headlong), directs.
For ages 14+; contains strong language and scenes of an adult nature.
