Town Hall Arts Center proudly presents the Colorado premiere of RAISIN THE MUSICAL. This stage adaptation of Lorraine Hansberry’s American classic novel, Raisin in the Sun, runs March 22-April 14, as part of Season 41.
Clive Barnes of The New York Times once called RAISIN “a warm and loving work,” and in his review of the Broadway production, went on to celebrate RAISIN as “one of those unusual musicals that should not only delight people who love musicals, but might also well delight people who don’t”.
