“There’s something about Stick Fly that just hits on every cylinder."

- OnStage Colorado


What should be a relaxing summer weekend on Martha’s Vineyard goes south when the LeVay brothers bring new girlfriends home to meet their wealthy and imposing parents. But Mom’s not there, and Dad’s acting weird. Lydia Diamond’s refreshing and bold story grapples with race, class, jealousy, and cultural expectations.
