Don't forget to come out tomorrow at 6:30 p.m. for a Dean's Tea with Tarell Alvin McCraney! Tarell Alvin McCraney is a playwright and actor best known for his acclaimed trilogy, The Brother/Sister Plays, which blends myth with realism in the intergenerational story of an African-American community in Louisiana. McCraney is an ensemble member of Chicago’s Steppenwolf Theatre Company, which premiered his new play Head of Passes this spring. He is also a resident playwright at New Dramatists and a member of Teo Castellanos/D-Projects in Miami, where he grew up in the Liberty City housing projects in the 1980s. McCraney’s other plays include The Breach (written with Joe Sutton and Catherine Filloux, 2008), about Hurricane Katrina, and Wig Out! (2007), about a family of New York drag queens. His latest play, Choir Boy, was produced at the Manhattan Theatre Club in June 2013.
