Building the Wall is the American political thriller from the Pulitzer and Tony Awards winning playwright of All The Way.

From America's most acclaimed political playwright, Pulitzer and Tony® winner Robert Schenkkan (All The Way), comes a provocative theatrical event written in a white-hot fury. In a time when shocking campaign rhetoric turns into real policies, Building the Wall urgently reveals the power of theater to question who we are and where we might be going.
