This week on Under the Radar:

The new Huntington Theatre Company play “Our Daughters, Like Pillars” has all the signature touches of local playwright Kirsten Greenidge. It’s set in New England, it’s a story about a Black family where issues of race and gender are a part of the main characters’ reality and humor is a part of the storytelling. For “Our Daughters, Like Pillars” Greenidge also adds a twist, setting the compelling drama against the backdrop of the evolving COVID-19 crisis.

Guests:

Kirsten Greenidge, an award-winning Boston-based playwright whose latest work is “Our Daughters, Like Pillars,” is now in performance at the Huntington Theatre Company through May 8th.
