Synopsis

MIDWEST PREMIERE The Collyer brothers seem to have everything: a mansion in Harlem, a place in high society, and a beautiful woman in their midst. But Langley's obsessive behavior has derailed his career as a pianist, and Homer will do anything to keep his brother to himself - for all time. This new work, loosely based on the real-life Collyers, explores the intricate play of love between two eccentric brothers during the early years of the 20th century.
