'Familiar' on stage now at the Guthrie

Familiar is a boisterous family drama now on stage at the Guthrie.

MINNEAPOLIS - There’s something old, something new and something borrowed in the Guthrie production of "Familiar."

Written by Danai Gurira and directed by Tabai Magar, this feisty, heart-warming play is about a Zimbabwean-American family preparing for their daughter Tendi’s wedding.

Marvelous and Donald have built their American dream in Minnesota, so when Tendi requests a traditional African blessing before marrying her white fiancé from Minnetonka and a surprise guest drops a bombshell, the rehearsal dinner can’t come soon enough. Family fireworks are interwoven with questions of cultural identity in this acclaimed play.

Toll-free 877-44STAGE

Playing at the Guthrie Theater through April 14.
