This Spring, Dutch theatre company Well Made Productions present the Netherlands premiere of Clybourne Park at Internationaal Theater Amsterdam (ITA). It marks the first Dutch production of American playwright Bruce Norris' Pulitzer, Tony and Olivier Award winning play about race and gentrification. In the Chicago suburb Clybourne Park, a house is being sold to a black family - the first black family in this hitherto exclusively white neighbourhood. But the neighbours begin to worry about their community: before you know it, the neighbourhood may become uninhabitable. Years later, young urban professionals Steve and Lindsey buy the same house in Clybourne Park with a view to knocking it down and building a lavish family home, thus gentrifying their piece of the now predominantly black neighbourhood. Again, the neighbours express concern: before you know it, the neighbourhood may become unaffordable.
- Bruce Norris
