They may call this a "family drama".  But what it really is, is an extremely canny -- and scathing -- and funny (to a point) -- exploration of race in America.  At least if you're Caucasian, don't go to this first-rate production of an explosive work if you prefer to leave the theater comforted and uplifted.  But in that case, you probably shouldn't be reading this List in the first place.  (Tickets for the SUNDAY performance are only 99¢, on a first-come first-served basis; you can't reserve them but have to show up early and wait for them.)  (Note also that the run has been extended another three weeks.)

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  Tweaked-up bistro Frenchette is the best new restaurant in New York.  Period.
