Oya Mae Dxtchxss-Davis' Packages O’ The Things We Deliver begins performances Off-Broadway March 27.

The play, the latest body of work commissioned as part of the I Am Soul Playwright Residency, is directed by Daniel Boisrond, and is scheduled to play the Chelsea Factory through 31. A partnered production by Chelsea Factory and the National Black Theatre, this is the first public presentation of the work.

The play stars Javon Q. Minter, Travis Raeburn, SeQuoiia, Kayodè Soyemi, and Tarra Conner Jones.

“It’s mind blowing to be in a space where I am allowed to come in freely as myself, a Black disabled person," shared Dxtchxss-Davis in a previous statement. "There aren’t many places that welcome the full range of how I express myself, and NBT continues to live up to being a ‘home away from home.' This big idea–a play that NBT is taking on-stage–is a true reflection of my whole self.”

The play centers on three brothers, who struggle through their own haunted pasts to save their family in the face of police violence in Minneapolis.

The creative team features set designer lucas a degirolamo, costume designer Jason A. Goodwin, lighting designer John D. Alexander, sound designer Chris Darbassie, projections designer Zavier Augustus Lee Taylor, props designer and production stage manager Belynda M’Baye, production manager Bernard Johnson, and associate director Wesley McIntyre. The production is cast by Sujotta Pace.
