Overview
Funnyhouse of a Negro is a modern classic about the student Sarah, a young Black woman living in New York City, and her search for her identity in a complex, warring, and fractured world. This search is manifested in Sarah's many selves: Queen Victoria, the Duchess of Hapsburg, Patrice Lumumba, and Jesus Christ. Performed by colleges worldwide, Adrienne Kennedy's landmark play continues to resonate with each new generation.
