Please join the Yale Alumni Association of Cleveland for an evening performance of the upcoming play "King James" and post-show talkback presented by Cleveland Playhouse at Playhouse Square's Outcalt Theatre. Rachel Fink (MFA David Geffen School of Drama) who is the Managing Director of Cleveland Playhouse will lead a talkback after the show. The Yale Alumni Association of Cleveland will also be joined by the Heights High Foundation, of which Rachel is also a graduate, that evening.
In the world of basketball, LeBron James is the king. But to die-hard Clevelanders like Shawn and Matt, “King James” is a god, and their fandom forges their unlikely bond. Set in a bar in Cleveland Heights and spanning LeBron’s rookie season to the 2016 NBA Championship, the men navigate their turbulent friendship through their shared love of the game. From the first quarter to the final jump shot, King James comes in clutch as a riveting love letter to our beloved home, “Believeland.” Filled with humor, jab steps, offensive fouls, and great poignancy, this energetic new play by Pulitzer Prize finalist Rajiv Joseph is an intimate exploration of the place that sports occupy in our lives and in our relationships with others.
