At a boys’ prep school, choir leader Pharus is targeted by a classmate and disciplined after freezing during a racial and homophobic taunt. As he navigates identity, friendship and authority, conflict with fellow students leads to an assault and a classmate’s suspension; the graduating choir ultimately carries on without him.
This triptych links three plays set across decades in the Louisiana bayou: Oya sacrifices a running scholarship to care for her mother and later struggles with infertility and love; the brothers Ogun and Oshoosi face prison and escape; and Elegba's son Marcus explores his identity and sexuality as a hurricane approaches.
