The Lorraine Hansberry Theatre

Raisin in the Sun
to the zenith of the sky
Let there be no curtain line
Wilson, Hurston, Hansberry, Hughes
Playwrights' Spirits haunt Hansberry Theatre
Stage whispers heard by actors
Echoes through the rafters forever after
while Wilson's piano plays on
while Ma Rainey cries out the blues
Raisin in the Sun
to the zenith of the sky
Let there be no curtain line
LONG LIVE LORRAINE HANSBERRY!
