American Son

By Christopher Demos-Brown

“It’s ticktock realism, deployed in real time” – The New York Times

PLAY DETAILS

In this gripping and unrelenting drama, an estranged bi-racial couple must confront their feelings about race and bias after their son is detained by the local police following a traffic stop incident. American Son asks us who we are as a nation, and how we deal with love, loss, and identity.
