For decades, the influential Jasper family has been a pillar of Black American Politics: civil rights leaders, pastors and congressmen. But like all families, there are cracks and secrets just under the surface. When the youngest son Nazareth returns home to Illinois with an uninvited friend in tow, the family is forced into a reckoning with itself, its faith and the legacies of Black radicalism. Rowdy, hilarious and filled with intrigue, Purpose is an epic family drama–a long-awaited world premiere from one of the country’s most celebrated voices.

Here’s what we know. Samuel D. Hunter is writing. Joe Mantello is directing. Ensemble member Laurie Metcalf is starring. They all want to work together at Steppenwolf. Who are we to get in their way?

Metcalf in a Hunter production directed by Mantello? That's an event. Can't wait.

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves :) If Grey House sells as badly as Laurie’s other plays this one could be a tough sell to investors.

We’re like 2 weeks away from previews starting and I’m surprised there isn’t a discount yet

This isn't Broadway. It is Steppenwolf's season in Chicago. Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think they are worried about investors. It is part of their season.



You're wrong in the sense that you completely misunderstood what people were talking about.
