Drawing on African mythology, McCraney spins a web of yearning and desire that embraces the intimate complexities of the contemporary African-American experience. In the Red and Brown Water, part one in the trilogy, is a coming-of-age story of Oya, a talented teenage athlete navigating her transition to womanhood. At once both poetically mythic and emotionally grounded, McCraney's theatrical voice is utterly sublime, unique, and deeply powerful.
