People do what they need to do in “Sunset Baby,” Dominique Morisseau’s bracing play about two generations of urban outlaws struggling to survive. That can mean, among other things, lying to, stealing from, blackmailing and pulling a gun even on the ones you love most.
Directed by Fleetwood-Jourdain Theatre's Artistic Director Tim Rhoze, the show focuses on Nina, a young drug dealer whose parents were prominent Black revolutionaries. When her mother dies, Nina’s estranged father, Kenyatta, who abandoned his family many years ago, walks back into her life. He is searching for a series of letters her mother wrote to him but never sent — now valuable because of the couple’s connection to the Black power movement.
Still resentful toward her father, the emotionally guarded Nina struggles to decide if she can forgive Kenyatta, and his presence causes her to reevaluate what she wants in life.
