Ben Braxton built his career on beauty and now it’s disappearing. He’s aging out of knowing who he is, his marriage to novelist Mira Blair is vanishing in plain sight, and he can’t direct his way out of it. When Ben casts a magnetic unknown actress in his passion project, the line between artistic obsession and self-destruction dissolves overnight. His producer warns him. His teenage daughter watches from the window. His wife starts writing a novel that looks suspiciously like their life. And the young woman he’s gambling everything on? She’s playing a longer game than he realizes.

Fresh off the success of her groundbreaking first play, A Raisin in the Sun, Lorraine Hansberry's The Sign in Sidney Brustein's Window tells the tragicomic story of a young bohemian couple in New York's Greenwich Village, struggling to do what's right in a world that rewards everything that's wrong. Sidney is a dreamer who wants his own Walden Pond; Iris is a budding actress whose own backstory is a performance. They're caught in a moment where, "the world is about to crack right down the middle," as the play tackles racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, liberal complacency, and more.
