BAD KREYÒL

dC Premiere

By DOMINIQUE MORISSEAU

DIRECTED BY Stori Ayers

May 20 - June 13, 2027

Determined to fulfill her grandmother's dying wish, first-generation Haitian American Simone returns to the island eager to reunite with her entrepreneur cousin, the Haitian-born and raised Gigi, and reconnect with her roots. When misconceptions and misunderstandings lead to dangerous mistakes both cousins are forced to reckon with what they know—and don't know—about their family and themselves in this heartwarming and timely new play from Tony Award-nominated writer Dominique Morisseau. Hailed as a New York Times Critic's Pick, Bad Kreyòl is a life-affirming celebration of bold women, ancestry, and the universal language of love.

from the Playwright:

“I am thrilled to be returning to Mosaic Theater and Washington, DC with the regional premiere of Bad Kreyòl. This play is a love letter to my heritage and culture, and celebrates the rich beauty and revolutionary spirit of Haiti and the Black diaspora. Bad Kreyòl is a testament to the power of family to connect across differences and affirms my belief that to love a people is to learn their language.”

— Dominique Morisseau
