Baltimore County, MD (Sept. 15, 2025) – Community College of Baltimore County Performing Arts presents The Brothers Size by Tarell Alvin McCraney, Oct. 9 - 14 in the Studio Theatre at CCBC Essex, 7201 Rossville Boulevard.
From the award-winning writer of Moonlight comes The Brothers Size—a gripping story of belonging and brotherhood. Ogun, a hardworking mechanic with a broken heart, lives with his aimless younger brother, Oshoosi, just out of prison. But when Oshoosi’s former cellmate, Elegba, reappears, Ogun’s loyalty is pushed to the limit. Rooted in Yoruba mythology and rich with poetry and ritual, this is theatre that’s both powerful and unforgettable.
