In “Daddy,” an exploration of intimacy and identity in which Basquiats, gospel, and fantasy collide around a Bel Air swimming pool, Franklin and Andre's feverish link deepens into an irresistible bond, pushing Franklin's mother into a battle of wills over the soul of the man they both call baby.

The limited Off-Broadway engagement will feature scenic design by Matt Saunders, costume design by Montana Levi Blanco, lighting design by Isabella Byrd, and sound design by Lee Kinney. Casting is by Judy Henderson, CSA, and the production stage manager is Valerie A. Peterson.
