The Brothers Size

Eureka Theatre
215 Jackson St San Francisco

The voice of today's generation -- the Arthur Miller of the Millennials -- young playwright Tarell Alvin McCraney penned this play that's been hailed by the Chicago Tribune as "the greatest piece of writing by an American playwright under 30 in a generation or more." West African folklore takes a trip to Louisiana's bayou in The Brothers Size, as the recently paroled Oshoosi Size returns home, hoping for a fresh start working in his brother Ogun's repair shop. But when the charming and sinister Elegba enters the picture, the situation's delicate stability is threatened and fraternal ties are tested. A stirring score, flights of poetry and West African mythology give wings to this soulful and celebratory work. Make your way to San Francisco's Eureka Theater for this Theatre Rhinoceros production of The Brothers Size.
