The Great Leap Presented by Center REP

March 16 - April 7

The Great Leap

By Lauren Yee
Directed by Nicholas C. Avila

Running March 16 – April 7, 2024, matinee and evening performances available

A sharp-witted new drama.

When an American basketball team travels to Beijing for an exhibition game in 1989, the drama goes deeper than the strain between countries. For two men with a past and one teen with a future, the game is a chance to claim personal victories on and off the court. Tensions rise right up to the final buzzer as a pivotal moment in history collides with the action in the arena. Driven by rapid-fire dialogue, this perceptive new play explores the cultural and political risks of raising your voice and standing your ground.

Approx. 2 hours, with one intermission.
