This Is How It Goes

Provocative playwright/screenwriter Neil LaBute offers a smart and sharp investigation of love, racism, truth and falsehood in This Is How It Goes. Set in a small town in the American Midwest, it tells the story of a love triangle between Man, the play’s narrator, and an interracial married couple, black Cody and white Belinda. While Man is our link into the play’s story, he doesn’t always tell the whole truth. Not only does he tell different versions of key scenes, he is also a terrible racist – or is he? Which are the charming characters and what are they really up to?

Part of PCPA Theaterfest’s Interplay staged reading series.
