The Brothers Size

A co-production with the Actors Touring Company, this dazzling debut by Tarell Alvin McCraney is a lyrical and passionate drama that plants Yoruba myth into the soil of Louisiana. It tells the story of two brothers: Ogun who owns an auto- repair shop, and Oshoosi, who's just left prison and always manages to take the wrong track. When his ex-cell mate Elegba gives him a clapped-out car, true freedom seems just around the corner.

McCraney, a student at the Yale School of Drama, won the first annual Paula Vogel Playwriting Award in March and the Kendeda Graduate Playwriting Competition in February.

Brothers Size will be directed by Bijan Sheibani with design by Patrick Burnier.
