About the Show

This thrilling comic drama of two brothers specializing in the sidewalk hustle known as three-card monte digs deep into the existential dilemmas of being African American and male in the United States. Suzan-Lori Park’s modern day Cain and Abel, named Lincoln and Booth, abandoned by their parents and accustomed to betrayal and loss, engage in a dizzying dance of brotherly love and hate. The Pulitzer Prize winning Topdog/Underdog is directed by George C. Wolfe.
