Trouble in Mind


  • Conrad Prebys Theatre Center 9500 Gilman Drive San Diego, CA, 92037 United States (map)

Presented by Old Globe Theatre
By Alice Childress
Directed by Delicia Turner Sonnenberg

A thrilling new production of a too-often neglected American classic. New York, 1955. A leading Black actress and a multiracial cast rehearse a challenging new Broadway play set in the South. Backstage rivalries and showbiz egos cause excitement of their own, but artistic differences between the cast and the White director soon bubble to the surface, revealing the truths that American drama covers over and the ways in which even well-meaning people can harm others under the guise of helping. The New York Times recently called Alice Childress’s groundbreaking Trouble in Mind “a rich, unsettling play that lingers in one’s memory long after its conclusion.”

Contains strong language.

Running time: Two hours. There is one intermission.
