Review: A RAISIN IN THE SUN, Lyric Hammersmith
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Oct 12, 2024

Lorraine Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun was the first play by a Black woman to appear on Broadway. Since its first performance in 1959, it remains as hard-hitting as ever. Exploring a domestic drama in its depiction of an everyday working class Black family, with ordinary desires, conflicts and aspirations; radical at the time of writing.  See what our critic had to say.
