Set on Chicago’s South Side, the plot revolves around the divergent dreams
and conflicts within three generations of the Younger family: son Walter
Lee, his wife Ruth, his sister Beneatha, his son Travis, and matriarch
Lena. The tensions and prejudice they face form this seminal American
drama. The Younger family’s heroic struggle to retain dignity in a harsh
and changing world is a searing and timeless document of hope and inspiratio
n.
