“A TALE ABOUT GETTING LOST, AND WHETHER AND HOW YOU CAN FIND YOUR WAY BACK” – LAURA COLLINS-HUGHES, THE NEW YORK TIMES

“THEATER OR THE HIGHEST CALIBER…ELECTRIFYING ACOTRS, A HOT THEATRICAL EXPERIENCE.” – TANIA FISHER, THEATER PIZZAZZ

The New York Premiere

A tale of two brothers. One a classical pianist. The other a jazz bass player. One a Christian. The other a Muslim. One living in freedom. The other in jail. Separated by bars, the brothers try to reconcile their differences through the language they know best. Music. A beautiful journey through faith, family, melody and time.

Inspired by a true story and widely praised, Bars and Measures by award-winning playwright Idris Goodwin comes to NY for the first time.
