This one performance was able to effectively compile several touchy subjects that most people are afraid of confronting directly, into a perspective that we could all relate to in some way and understand. It addressed racism, sexism, sexual orientation, white privilege, and what entails each one.

During the performance, two of the actors (the two younger brothers) began playing a game called “Privilege”, (which I thought was subtly powerful, but powerful nonetheless) which was not only meant to be a joke, but it also put privilege into the perspective of a reality. This act also foreshadowed the fact that only the two younger brothers had grown up using their privilege whereas the oldest brother felt like he didn’t deserve it, and had to earn it instead.

It was definitely interesting to see how they presented different views of privilege through each actor in the family and how each one ultimately decided to take advantage of it if they did at all. I also thought it was powerful how one by one, each of Matt’s (the oldest brother) family members, left him because of the fact that he didn’t know what to do with his life and with his privilege, but he knew for sure that he didn’t want to use and abuse it like his brothers had.
