What happens to a dream deferred? Before there was a movement, a family was fighting for a future. Lorraine Hansberry’s groundbreaking drama A Raisin in the Sun explores this haunting question through the struggles of the Younger family on Chicago’s South Side in the 1950s. When a life insurance check offers a rare chance at change, the Youngers must confront impossible choices that test their values, dreams, and love for one another. Shattering the mold of American theatre, Hansberry’s bold and emotional portrait of a Black family on the brink of transformation unfolds with heart, humanity, and unflinching honesty. Raw, riveting, and resonant, A Raisin in the Sun is a timeless call to dream—and to fight for those dreams.
