    Actors’ Theatre of Columbus – A Raisin in the Sun

    Actors’ Theatre of Columbus (ATC) is excited to return to its summer home of Schiller Park with a 41st anniversary season that embraces community, the families we choose, and finding a place to call home.

    A RAISIN IN THE SUN by Lorraine Hansberry

    Directed by Julie Whitney Scott

    Thur-Sun, August 17 – September 3

    A Raisin in the Sun continues to tell the story of the hopes, aspirations, and dreams of a struggling working-class African American family in America. The play takes place in the ’50s in the South Side Chicago apartment of the Youngers. Lorraine Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun debuted on Broadway in 1959. Today in 2023, the struggle is still real for poor families trying to find a decent place to live, which makes this play timeless and relevant for today.

    All performances take place at 8 pm at Schiller Park Amphitheatre. All performances are offered for FREE (donations accepted at intermission), or reserve a chair, blanket, or lounger (new this year!) in advanceReserved section zero-gravity chairs (with cupholder and headrest) are $25, front section ATC logo blankets (that you can keep after the show!) are $25, and reserved ground-level loungers (with back support) are $20.
