Onstage May 26 - June 25

When Diane, a recently widowed socialite, and Reggie, an African American clergyman, clash over how to help one of the "Lost Boys of Sudan" acclimate to life in urban America, a host of conflicts arise. Committed to replacing old patterns with new involvements, Diane tries to balance the responses of her semi-estranged daughter and the strong pull she feels toward the scarred refugee. In Since Africa four extraordinary people grapple with loss, identity, and the challenges of creating a new home.
"A sensitive and deeply thoughtful play with four rich characters"(Chicago Sun-Times).
