Autor afroestadounidense contemporáneo, McCraney crea personajes complejos que problematizan nociones colectivistas de la identidad afro en los Estados Unidos. A través de una dramaturgia estilo raw theatre, sincrética y de gran musicalidad lingüística, The Brothers Size interroga la masculinidad afroestadouni-dense al contraponer la vida íntima de sus personajes con ideas, patrones y expectativas que reducen su existencia a discursos y conflictos raciales. Su dramaturgia invita a repensar al personaje afro desde la individualidad, la interacción y la diferencia.]]></p></abstract>

McCraney creates complex characters that problematize collectivist notions of African American identity. Through a raw theater style, syncretic blendings and great linguistic musicality, The Brothers Size interrogates African American masculinity by contrasting the intimate lives of the characters with ideas, patterns and expectations that reduce Black, male existence to racial discourses and conflicts. His dramaturgy rethinks the Black, male character by furthering individuality, interaction and difference.]]></p></abstract>
