We Lovers
“For those not familiar with St. Croix, he’s a much-in-demand Black queer playwright who tells poetry-sprinkled stories inspired by his own childhood and the people in his life. Like many of St. Croix’s other plays, We Lovers is sprinkled with ghosts, monsters, and the supernatural.”
— The San Diego Union-Tribune
“St. Croix’s writing is beautifully evocative and poetic. His imagery is lush, lyrical, and sometimes demands patience and close listening; in return, it rewards the reader with stories that feel at once intimate and epic.”
— Broadway World San Diego
In the woods outside a small town, four young locals gather in a moonlit clearing to tell love stories that blur the line between the ordinary and the otherworldly. By lantern light, they share tales of a man who falls for a fallen angel, a woman who crosses a desert of monsters for someone she lost, a final girl who makes the ultimate sacrifice, and two sweethearts racing against a falling sky. We Lovers blends slice-of-life storytelling with homespun magic, telling quiet tales of heroes and dreamers, friends and lovers.
