In the play Genealogy, secrets in their family trees surprise two couples appearing on a 'reality' ancestry podcast. Audaciously, they manage in this 'problem comedy' to conjure additional shocks for each other and their host while also confronting some culpabilities in our country's heritage. Genealogy explores a very serious subject: the legacy of race relations paired with the prospect of reparations. Yet following George Bernard Shaw's advice that if you want to tell people the truth, you'd better make them laugh or they'll kill you, co-playwrights Elliott and Queenan have turned the situation into another of their problem comedies. A Comedy about DNA and Family Heritage you didn't know you had!
