The ever-engaging Tarell Alvin McCraney (playwright of The Brother/Sister Plays) recently spoke at a Live at the Library event at the Princeton Public Library, talking about his influences, his life, and the three remarkable plays that comprise The Brother/Sister Plays: In the Red and Brown Water, The Brothers Size, and Marcus; or The Secret of Sweet.  For my money, these videos should be essential watching for anyone who plans on attending either of these three plays.  Tarell is brilliant, funny, passionate, moving and deeply thoughtful.  You can scroll between the 14 videos by clicking on the arrows at either side of the viewer.  If you’d like to know more about Tarell or The Brother/Sister Plays, please visit our Trilogy Website.
