No Place To Be Somebody examines the human struggle to find our individual identities through the rough and destructive events that occur. The story centers on the goings on in a bar filled with a rainbow of colorful figures whose ambitions are dashed in a cold, racially strained world. Premiering at New York’s Public Theatre in 1969, No Place To Be Somebody opened at Broadway’s Morosco Theatre in September 1971 and was the first Off-Broadway play to be awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
