“Clybourne Park”

Bruce Norris

Clybourne Park lands on the suburban stage of Palo Alto Players, where its story line of ethnically changing neighborhoods, disputes over remodels, and petitions over historical significance of vintage buildings quickly hits home in this tony town.  Add its underlying themes of racial and cultural prejudices that work hard to be masked in polite speech and political correctness, and the play’s relevance only grows.
