On the night a teenage boy goes missing, his parents end up at the police precinct trying to figure out what happened to their son. Old wounds are reopened concerning race, fear, and their rocky marriage. “American Son is not a subtle play; it barely feels like a play at all. With its unrelentingly high tension on every level — maternal, marital, societal — it’s more like a slice of a nightmare, with few contours despite its surprises.” – New York Times
