He Has Been Skipping Work And Going To The Green Hat. During The Day - He Took Willie Harris's Car And Drove Around The State - Thinking About What He Wants. On The Third Day He Walked Around The Town - But He Still Ended Up At The Green Hat.

A 1959 play by Lorraine Hansberry. The title comes from the poem "Harlem" (also known as "A Dream Deferred") by Langston Hughes. The story tells of a black family's experiences in the Washington Park Subdivision of Chicago's Woodlawn neighborhood as they attempt to "better" themselves with an insurance payout following the death of the father.
