About This Show

The Matrix Theatre Company presents the West Coast premiere of Lydia R. Diamond’s Stick Fly. Shirley Jo Finney directs.

An upper class African American family vacationing on Martha’s Vineyard wrestles with parental expectations, sibling rivalry, and issues of class and race. Sensitive Kent LeVay and his slick brother Flip see their weekend at the family home as the perfect opportunity to introduce their girlfriends to their parents. Instead, they stumble onto a domestic powder keg of prejudice, hypocrisy and family secrets.
