Haunted by the past and their obsession with the street con game, three-card monte, the brothers come to learn the true nature of their history.

Casting is by Calleri Jensen Davis. Kamra A. Jacobs is the Production Stage Manager. The production is being produced by David Stone, LaChanze, Rashad V.
