September 25 – October 18, 2026 (Opening night: Thursday, Oct.1, 2026) Sheryl and Harvey White Theatre Conrad Prebys Theatre Center By Suzan-Lori Parks Directed by Steve H. Broadnax III Broadway director Steve H. Broadnax III returns to the Globe after last season’s thrilling "Appropriate" to direct an intimate new staging of Suzan-Lori Parks’s Pulitzer Prize–winning modern classic, which The New York Times hailed as the greatest American play of the past 25 years. Brothers Lincoln and Booth hustle for survival through the street con game of three-card monte. Their bond is tested by rivalry, resentment, and the elusive promise of the American Dream. By turns funny, provocative, and charged, "Topdog/Underdog" charts the razor-thin line between ambition and self-destruction. Total running time: Two hours and 20 minutes with one 15-minute intermission. This production of "Topdog/Underdog" includes adult themes, profanity and explicit sexual language, simulated violence, and the use of a prop firearm and associated sound effects.
