OTP presents Lorraine Hansberry’s final work: Les Blancs.

In the the waning colonial days of a fictional African nation, a young man returns home to bury his father.

At the local mission, colliding interests and loyalties unfold—with inescapable consequences.

At a time when discussions of U.S. expansionism are resurfacing, these themes of colonization have never felt more urgent.

This exploration of power, politics, and liberation resists simplistic narratives of good and evil, challenging us to confront the brutal complexities of empire.
