Appropriate
By Branden Jacobs-Jenkins

Directed by Tom Noga

When three adult siblings reunite at their late father's crumbling Arkansas estate to settle his affairs, a shocking discovery in the attic transforms their inheritance into something far more sinister than they bargained for.  Old resentments explode into vicious confrontations as buried secrets force them to confront the most uncomfortable truths about their family—and themselves. Part dark comedy, part psychological thriller, this 2024 Tony Award-winning drama is an unflinching examination of privilege, denial, and the toxic legacies we inherit.

Warning: Contains mature themes and disturbing content. Recommended for mature audiences.

At a cocktail party, Austin and Ruth reunite and have the opportunity to rekindle a romance begun almost thirty years ago. What would you do if given a second chance?
