Oscar Isaac and Rachel Brosnahan to headline Lorraine Hansberry’s ‘The Sign in Sidney Brustein’s Window’

NEW YORK — Two stars will align for the first major New York revival of a Lorraine Hansberry play next year.

Oscar Isaac and Rachel Brosnahan have been announced to headline the playwright’s “The Sign in Sidney Brustein’s Window” at The Brooklyn Academy of Music’s BAM Harvey Theater, with performances set to begin Feb. 4.

Directed by three-time Obie Award winner Anne Kauffman, the drama was Hansberry’s final play produced on Broadway before her death at age 34. The Chicago native was the first Black woman to have a play produced on Broadway with 1959′s landmark “A Raisin in the Sun.”
