Overview

• Now running Off-Broadway through September 28, the 90-minute, no-intermission production marks two decades since the play’s New York debut.
• The Shed staging is co-produced with the Geffen Playhouse and features live percussion by Munir Zakee, choreographed movement, and a white sand circle playing area.
• André Holland plays Ogun alongside Alani iLongwe as Oshoosi and Malcolm Mays as Elegba, with critics widely praising the trio’s performances.
• Reviews commend McCraney’s lyrical writing and the production’s ritualized design, while some note stretches of slow pacing or a desire for more context from the full Brother/Sister cycle.
• The story invokes Yoruba orishas and explores brotherhood, life after incarceration and probation, responsibility, and the complexities of Black masculinity.
