In the South Side Chicago of the 1930s, Bigger Thomas struggles to create a place for himself in a world whose prejudice has left him with few opportunities. After taking a job in a wealthy white man's house, he unwittingly unleashes a series of events that violently and irrevocably seal his fate.
Manifesting Bigger's double consciousness through the character of the Black Rat, Nambi E. Kelley reclaims Richard Wright's groundbreaking story for a twenty-first century audience.
"Native Son is a gutsy, powerful piece of theater." - Chicago Tribune
