Old-line, self-proclaimed liberals Matt and Christina Drayton must come to grips with their buried prejudices when their daughter Joanna returns home with a new fiancé: African-American doctor John Prentice. However, she shocks even John by inviting his disapproving parents to dinner. A clash of generations and races ensues when both sets of parents must confront their own unexpected reactions and concerns for their children as their long-held beliefs are put to the test. This funny and poignant stage adaptation offers a fresh interpretation of the beloved Academy Award-winning film. This new stage adaptation receives its regional debut at Curtain Call!
