By Dael Orlandersmith. In this lyrical and bittersweet love story, Alma and Eugene – united by an affection for the Monkees, Batman play-acting and running fast in the sticky Southern heat – grow from childhood playmates to teenage sweethearts to adult lovers. As they look to rise above generations of bitterness and struggle, will their love set them free? This Pulitzer Prize-nominated play, with its passionate and poetic language, explores whether prejudices of the past are destined to become the legacies of the future.
