Pulitzer Prize winning playwright Suzan Lori-Parks demonstrates that she is the master wordsmith with her play “Topdog/Underdog,” now having an explosive 20th anniversary revival at the John Golden Theatre at 252 W. 45th St.
“Topdog Underdog” team: director Kenny Leon, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Corey Hawkins, playwright Suzan Lori-Parks Lori-Parks tells the story of two Black brothers, Lincoln and Booth. These are two Black men for whom life dealt terrible cards. They have not known love, security, support in their home lives, but instead experienced abandonment by both their parents, betrayal, chaos. They have known fear, hunger, desperation.
From the time that the play starts the storyline is presented fast and furious. The two actors, whether alone or together, have intensely quick-spoken words that reveal some of the deep disappointment, anguish and humiliation they have suffered and are currently suffering. Corey Hawkins is meticulously brilliant as older brother Lincoln. He vividly lets you feel every emotion his character has had to endure.
