White People synopsis: What does it mean to be a white American? What does it mean for any American to live in a country that is not the one you were promised? White People is a controversial and darkly funny play about the lives of three ordinary Americans placed under the spotlight: Martin, a Brooklyn-born high powered attorney for a white-shoe law firm in St. Louis, MO; Mara Lynn, a housewife and former homecoming queen in Fayetteville, NC; and Alan, a young professor struggling to find his way in New York City. Through heart-wrenching confessions, they wrestle with guilt, prejudice, and the price they and their children must pay for their actions. White People is a candid, brutally honest meditation on race and language in our culture.

“Rogers is that rarest of creatures: an American playwright with a social conscience and the desire to make damning connections between human psychology and ideology.”
- Time Out New York

“In brutally honest confessions that eat through protective layers like acid from a battery… the piece never strikes a false note… rare plays like this one help lift the veil.”
- The Los Angeles Times

“EXPLOSIVE... Nothing prepares you for what you are about to [see].
- Theatreworld Magazine

“A revelation. WHITE PEOPLE is remarkable. The play seems less written than merely transcribed; there’s not one false turn of phrase in it.”
- Philadelphia Enquirer
