Synopsis

Play - remount of the Bristol Old Vic production Writer Tarell Alvin McCraney Director Nancy Medina From Academy Award-winning writer Tarell Alvin McCraney (Moonlight), comes the exhilarating story of Pharus, a young, Black, gay student leading the legendary gospel choir at his elite, all-boys school in America. Pharus is a confident and gifted singer who has earned his position as soloist. But when his pride is sullied by one of his peers, he falters... what does it mean to be a young, Black, queer man – and to be one at the Charles R. Drew Prep School for Boys? We’re sent on an electrifying journey through the growing pains of humanity as, together, the boys navigate spirituality, sexuality, race, identity, and brotherhood in their journey to becoming men. This tender, coming-of-age story is threaded throughout with soul-stirring a cappella gospel hymns and spirituals. It is a beautiful, joyous play which rejoices in all that it means to march to your own drum.
