In Performance: ‘Choir Boy’

“Choir Boy,” a new play by Tarell Alvin McCraney, follows a group of young black prep school students as they struggle with issues of identity and sexuality. In this scene, the boys, members of the school’s choir, sing the spiritual “Motherless Child.” The Manhattan Theater Club production continues through July 21 at City Center.

Recent videos in this series include Carla Gugino in a scene from Daniel Pearle’s play “A Kid Like Jake,” at LCT3’s Clare Tow Theater, and Steven Pasquale singing “I Never Knew” from the new musical “Far From Heaven,” at Playwrights Horizons.

Coming soon: Christopher Denham in a scene from “The Unavoidable Disappearance of Tom Durnin.”
