Belinda and Cody Phipps appear a typical Midwestern couple: teenage sweethearts, children, luxurious home. Typical except that Cody is black—"rich, black, and different," in the words of Belinda, who finds herself attracted to a former (white) classmate. As the battle for her affections is waged, Belinda and Cody frankly doubt the foundation of their initial attraction, opening the door wide to a swath of bigotry and betrayal. Staged on continually shifting moral ground that challenges our received notions about gender, ethnicity, and even love itself, This Is How It Goes unblinkingly explores the myriad ways in which the wild card of race is played by both black and white in America.

This Is How It Goes
I liked this play. I like the storytelling style, down to how LaBute structures the stage directions. Neil LaBute often writes about uncomfortable topics in incredibly smart ways and that's the case here. I really liked the twist and the fact that he lays the possible way's things went down out for the audience, but doesn't tell you exactly what happened. Normally I'd be frustrated by that, but in this case it works really well with the structure of the story.
