September 25

At Steppenwolf Theatre Company

Lincoln Park, Chicago

"I laughed. I cried. I snorted from laughing."
Bring a layer, theater runs cold
Two bars on the first floor

Two brothers, one cramped room, and a con game they can't quit. Suzan-Lori Parks' Pulitzer-winning drama unfolds in Steppenwolf's intimate Downstairs Theatre, where every bluff and betrayal lands close enough to sting.
