When writer Suzanne Alexander (six-time Tony winner Audra McDonald) returns to her alma mater as a guest speaker to explore the violence in her works, a dark mystery unravels. Adrienne Kennedy’s Ohio State Murders is an intriguing and unusual suspense play, as well as a pertinent look at the destructiveness of racism in our society. Tony winner Kenny Leon (A Soldier's Play) directs.
