MAR 31 — APR 25, 2027

By Suzan-Lori Parks

PULITZER PRIZE-WINNING CLASSIC

“IT’S THE FIRST MOVE THAT SEPARATES THUH PLAYER FROM THUH PLAYED.”

Brothers Lincoln and Booth are dealt a bad hand before the game even begins. Their names—a cruel joke from their father—carry the weight of American history, turning an already volatile brotherhood into a contest over who gets to define himself. Haunted by their past and obsessed with the street con hustle of three-card monte, they turn every encounter into a battle of wits, sharp humor and high stakes. But some games you can't afford to lose.
