War looms across the ocean, anti-Semitism is on the rise, capitalism is corrupt, the American economy is shaken to its roots, immigrants areuneasy and the family unit is in upheaval – with issues as relevant today as when it first premiered in 1935, this masterpiece by Odets is gritty, passionate, funny and heartbreaking. Set in a Bronx tenement during the Great Depression, the Bergers, a working-class Jewish family helmed by Matriarch Bessie, desperately cope with their financial hardships while clinging to dreams of a brighter future. The tale grabs you by the collar and reminds you of the price of materialism, of an inhuman society. A masterpiece of American drama, The Wall Street Journal heralds it as “One of the greatest of all American plays.”

That is until Susannah Mullally, a song collector on a mission to record pieces of African-American culture, overhears Pearl singing while on a visit to the prison. Through her music, Pearl has the unexpected opportunity to earn her freedom and search for her daughter. This work harnesses race relations and the rich oral history of the African-American community to build a tale that is funny, touching, and compelling.
