CNP is partnering with Actor’s Express to present the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning play Topdog/Underdog by Suzan-Lori Parks at Actor’s Express in Atlanta, GA.

Play Synopsis

Lincoln and Booth, African-American brothers, were named by their father as a sick joke. The two hustle for work, one to the tune of Three-Card Monte and the other working as Abraham Lincoln at an arcade. Cast in a life of poverty and violence, the legacy of their namesakes on their backs, these brothers battle more than mere sibling rivalry.
