The Luck of the Irish @ Tacoma Little Theatre (Tacoma) (PWYC)

By Kirsten Greenidge
Directed by Lydia K. Valentine

What would you do if someone claimed your home was theirs? When an upwardly mobile African-American couple wants to buy a home in an all-white neighborhood in 1950’s Boston, they pay a struggling Irish family to “ghost-buy” a house on their behalf. Fifty years later, the Irish family wants “their” house back. Moving across two eras, The Luck of the Irish explores racial and social issues and the universal longing for home.
