It is the eve of Obama's first election. Four of Harvard
University's brightest; a surgeon, an actress, a psychologist, and
a neuro-psychiatrist, are all interested in different aspects of
the brain, particularly how it responds to race. But like all smart
people, they are also searching for love, success, and identity in
their own lives. Lydia Diamond brings these characters together in
this sharp, witty play about social and sexual politics.

The affluent, African-American LeVay family is gathering at their
Martha's Vineyard home for the weekend, and brothers Kent and Flip
have each brought their respective ladies home to meet the parents
for the first time. Kent's fiancee Taylor, an academic whose absent
father was a prominent author, struggles to fit into the LeVay's
upper-crust lifestyle. Kimber, on the other hand, is a
selfdescribed WASP who works with inner-city school children, fits
in more easily with the family. Joining these two couples are the
demanding LeVay patriarch Joe and Cheryl, the daughter of the
family's longtime housekeeper. As the two newcomers butt heads over
issues of race and privilege, longstanding family tensions bubble
under the surface and reach a boiling point when secrets are
revealed.
