American Son

This nail-biting story takes place in real-time in the waiting room of a police station where, in the middle of the night, the parents of a Black teenager anxiously await news of their son, who may have been picked up by the police. A breathtaking drama that looks at subtle—and not-so-subtle—racial dynamics in American culture, this production is presented in collaboration with The English Theatre of Frankfurt, Germany.
