After having had to shut down the production of Bruce Norris’ play Clybourne Park at its final dress rehearsal in March 2020, it has been announced today that Oliver Kaderbhal’s production, originally scheduled for the play’s 10th anniversary year, will run at the Park Theatre venue from 16 March-23 April.

Joining the previously announced cast of Michael Fox (Jim/Tom), Andrew Langtree (Karl/Steve), Richard Lintern (Russ/Dan), Imogen Stubbs (Bev/Kathy) and Eric Underwood (Albert/Kevin) will be Katie Matsell (Betsy/Lindsey) and Aliyah Odoffin (Francine/Lena). 

Winner of both the Tony and Olivier Award for Best Play and the Pulitzer Prize for author Bruce Norris, Clybourne Park is a razor-sharp satire about the politics of race and real estate. The play returns to London following sell out runs at The Royal Court and in the West End.

In 1959, Russ and Bev are moving to the suburbs after the tragic death of their son and have sold their house to the neighbourhood’s first black family.

Decades later, the roles are reversed when a young white couple buys the lot in what is now a predominantly black neighbourhood, signalling a new wave of gentrification. In both instances, a community showdown takes place – are the same issues festering beneath the floorboards fifty years on?
