SUMMARY:Big White Fog
DESCRIPTION:Big White Fog \nTheodore Ward’s Big White Fog is the big shoulders on which A Raisin in the Sun stands. First completed in 1938\, funded by the Federal Theatre Project\, and influenced by the South Side Writers Group that cultivated such iconic talents as Richard Wright and Margaret Walker\, Big White Fog drove American realism forward by contending with discontent. \nThe United States is on the cusp of the Great Depression and\, like many\, the Mason family is struggling. Between the precarious economy and racial violence on Chicago’s segregated South Side\, something’s got to give. As different generations strive to secure the Mason family’s future\, catastrophic decisions are made\, leading to a heartbreaking twist and a blistering condemnation of America’s Big White Fog. \nCourt Theatre Resident Artist and the nation’s preeminent director of August Wilson\, Ron OJ Parson\, opens the 2025/26 season with this rich portrayal of Black life on Chicago’s South Side. \nAccessible Performances: \n\nTouch Tour: Saturday\, October 4 at 12:30pm\nAudio Description and ASL Interpretation: Saturday\, October 4 at 2:00pm\nOpen Captioning: Sunday\, October 5 at at 2:00pm\n\nArtwork by Ed Watkins.
