A high- energy hip hopera that fuses Rap, Hip Hop, R&B, and Operatic Spirituals with theatrical storytelling to explore love, loyalty, cultural and generational grudges in a feud between two families that's as raw as it is relatable. It's an upbeat contemporary play that tells one story of the Inter-diasporic tensions between Black Americans, Caribbean Americans and Africans. It's West Side Story meets Romeo and Juliet but without the tragic ending.
