By Jackie Sibblies Drury
Directed by Jasminn Johnson

Columbia University School of Arts MFA Acting Cohort of 2026 presents Jackie Sibblies Drury’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Fairview, directed by Jasminn Johnson.

Beverly needs her mother’s birthday party to be perfect, but nothing is going to plan. Jasmine is drinking, Dayton is happily unhelpful, Keisha is a teenager, Tyrone is MIA, the radio is going off, and other people’s opinions are intruding on everything!
