Stick Fly - The West Coast premiere of Lydia R. Diamond's provocative and witty drama about an upper class African American family extends through June 28 at The Matrix Theatre. In this new play from one of America's freshest and most dynamic voices, a wealthy African American family vacationing on Martha's Vineyard wrestles with parental expectations, sibling rivalry, and issues of class and race. Sensitive Kent LeVay and his slick brother Flip see their weekend at the family home as the perfect opportunity to introduce their girlfriends to their parents. Instead, they stumble onto a domestic powder keg of prejudice, hypocrisy and family secrets.
