When you singing them songs... he say, 'I can see where we going and where we come from.' Determined to make his mark like those before him Pharus is hell bent on being the best choir leader in the school's 50 year history. But in a world built on rites and rituals, how will he conform to expectations and gain the respect he desperately needs? Tarell Alvin McCraney's piercing play set in an all boys, all black, American prep school scores a gospel refrain of the politics of minority and masculinity.
