Gablestage at The Biltmore plays White Guy On the Bus

Sat Aug 11, 2018 - Sun Sep 9, 2018

A fearless new play that unravels a complex web of moral ambiguity, revenge, and racial bias. A wealthy white businessman and a struggling black single mom ride the same bus week after week. As they get to know each other, their relationship sparks a candid and surprising look at racial and economic divides. This play by Bruce Graham has been selected as New York Times Critic’s Pick.

Bruce Graham began as a playwright at the Philadelphia Festival Theatre for New Plays (PFT) in 1984 with Burkie. He became playwright-in-residence at PFT and later served two years as Artistic Director. He has received grants from the Pew Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, and was a past winner of the Princess Grace Foundation Statuette. He won the Rosenthal Prize for Coyote On A Fence. He has won consecutive Barrymore Awards for Best New Play (Something Intangible and Any Given Monday) and Chicago’s Jefferson Award for The Outgoing Tide. He is the first American playwright to be invited two years in a row to the Galway Arts Festival, which produced The Outgoing Tide and Stella and Lou.
