Show Notes

When Ed and his three adult sons come together to celebrate Christmas, they enjoy cheerful trash-talking, pranks, and takeout Chinese. Then they confront a problem that even being a happy family can’t solve: When identity matters, and privilege is problematic, what is the value of being a straight white man? Listen to Features Editor Becca Martin-Brown chat with actor Ed McClure and director Brenda Nemec about the Arkansas Public Theatre production of Young Jean Lee’s comedy.
