Come and see Laura Jacqmin's play Do-Gooder in a FREE community performance underwritten by 16th Street’s 100 Club Members along with Nineteenth Century Club members. The play will be performed in the Margaret Houck Ballroom. Free parking in garage located right next to building.
When Gordon and Carmel buy a greystone in Chicago, it’s with the best of intentions: they plan to rent the building’s second apartment to a low-income black family, displacing Erik and Nora, their white tenants. But when Gordon realizes there’s more to Nora than meets the eye, he finds himself caught in the middle of a power struggle, calling into question what it means to do good.
Featuring Meghan Reardon who originated the role of Nora in 16th Street's Season Seven 2014 production, along with Gregory Geffrard, Lanise Antoine Shelley and Rich Holton.
Part of 16th Street's 2017 Pop Up Series celebrating our 10th Anniversary by revisiting plays by our past playwrights-in-residence.
