Description
By Lydia R. Diamond Directed by Seema Sueko Kreeger Theater April 14 - May 21, 2017 Do our belief systems stem from our environment, or are some prejudices hard-wired into us? With barbed wit, Lydia R. Diamond (Stick Fly) explores the unavoidable nature of racism and other sticky subjects in the controversial and fiercely funny new play Smart People. Four intellectuals — a doctor, an actress, a psychologist, and a neurobiologist studying the human brain’s response to race — search for love, acceptance and identity in a complex world where political correctness comes face-to-face with cold hard data. Smart People runs approximately two hours and thirty minutes, including one 15-minute intermission. This production includes mature content and strobe-like effects.
