The 2015 Pulitzer Prize-winning play by Stephen Adly Guirgis is described as a "rowdy dark comedy." The story follows ex-cop "Pops" Washington and his ex-con son Junior, who are barely holding on to one of the last great rent-stabilized apartments in Manhattan.

The cast features Eamonn Walker as Pops and ensemble member James Vincent Meredith as Junior, with ensemble member Tim Hopper as Lieutenant Caro, Audrey Francis as Detective O'Connor, Victor Almanzar as Oswaldo, Elena Flores as Lulu, and Lily Mojekwu as Church Lady.
