Topdog/Underdog, the Pulitzer Prize-winning play, is back on Broadway, officially opening at Golden Theatre on Thursday, October 20, 2022. Take a look at the revival in these new production photos.
The strictly limited 16-week engagement stars Tony Award nominee Corey Hawkins (In the Heights, The Tragedy of Macbeth) and Emmy Award winner Yahya Abdul-Mateen II (Watchmen, Candyman) as brothers Lincoln and Booth in Pulitzer Prize winner Suzan-Lori Parks’ play, directed by Tony Award winner Kenny Leon.
Suzan-Lori Parks’ Topdog/Underdog, a darkly comic fable of brotherly love and family identity, tells the story of two brothers, Lincoln (Hawkins) and Booth (Abdul-Mateen II), names given to them as a joke by their father. Haunted by the past and their obsession with the street con game, three-card monte, the brothers come to learn the true nature of their history.
