THREE-HEADED MONSTER
After serving time for a crime he didn’t commit, 21-year-old Kyrie returns to the Bronx and his two best friends. As kids, they were inseparable—lovingly known as the Three-headed Monster. Now, in their cramped apartment, Kyrie fears there’s no room left for him in a trio and world that moved on while he was away. A touching drama about the healing power of friendship from one of the theatre’s rising stars.
