What to expect

Eleanor Burgess's play is set at a prestigious Northeastern university, where a routine meeting between Zoe, a Black scholar, and her tenured history professor, Janine, turns into intellectual warfare. Critiques of grammar spiral into arguments about historical accuracy, erasure, professional ethics and who gets to set the standard for truth.
