APPROPRIATE
by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins
Directed by Claire Lewis
When the Lafayette siblings return to their late father’s crumbling Arkansas plantation home to settle his estate, tensions explode as they uncover disturbing artefacts among his belongings. Appropriate is a bold, biting and darkly comic play that explores legacy, race and what we choose to remember – or forget – about our past.

Performance Sold out? We no longer offer a waiting list for sold out performances. SO – ideally book early! OR If you live close to the theatre it can be worth coming along and waiting to see if there are any returns. Of course there is no guarantee you will be lucky - but it is surprising how often returns are offered when one or more members of a party are unable to attend.
