Jar The Floor

eta Creative Arts Foundation
7558 S South Chicago Avenue Chicago

Cheryl West’s unflinching exploration of familial bonds shared among women explodes with ferocious humor and disarming humanity in Jar the Floor. Four generations gather to celebrate Madear’s 90th birthday. Over the course of the celebration ghosts, secrets, and a surprise party guest test the boundaries of already fragile relationships. As the celebration comes to a close, some women find resolution in change while others remain steadfastly in the past.

  Jar The Floor Review Round-Up

Chicago Reader - Somewhat Recommended

"...Having created a complex set of dysfunctional relationships, West doesn't seem up to resolving them. Still, the production contains some fine acting, notably Nicole Michelle Haskins's nuanced performance as a bookish college professor."
