The Comeuppance, directed By Josh Lombard, is a darkly comic, haunting play that brings old friends together for a high school reunion, where humor collides with mortality and time. Known for his inventive, provocative storytelling, Jacobs-Jenkins has also written Gloria, Everybody, and An Octoroon. In 2025, he won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for Purpose, further cementing his place as one of the most important playwrights of his generation.
