Providence, 1993. A gang leader from Harlem arrives at his ex-girlfriend's apartment in the middle of the night — wounded, on the run, with nowhere else to go. What he doesn't know is that her roommate is gay, grieving, and not about to back down. Set against the twin epidemics of AIDS and drug violence, Don Mays's world premiere is a funny, fierce, and deeply human play about two men the world treated as disposable who are certain they have nothing in common, and the woman standing between them who can see exactly who they both are.
