The patriarch is Pastor Solomon Jasper, a Civil Rights legend, and his steely wife, Claudine.

They are reuniting with their two sons — Junior, a disgraced former state senator, recently released after serving a prison sentence for embezzling funds, and Naz, who fled divinity school and is now a nature photographer.Young plays Aziza, a Harlem-bred social worker who has been close friends with Naz but didn’t know anything about his family. “This kind of thing never happens to me! I never meet famous people and you’ve been famous this whole time?” she screams.Her awe quickly fades as sibling jealousies, parental frustrations, past sins and the pressures of legacy come tumbling out over a fraught dinner. There is some slapping.

“We are so susceptible to get angry with the people we love the most,” says Young. “What we’re seeing in the less than 12 hours of them being together for the first time in two years, they’re sitting down and having dinner, and all of these things come up, as they often do.”Young’s work has earned her a Tony Award nomination and a chance to make history. Already the first Black person to be nominated four times consecutively, if she wins, she’ll be the first Black performer to win two Tonys in a row.

Young made her Broadway debut in 2021 in “Clyde’s,” was in “Cost of Living” the next year and co-starred opposite Leslie Odom Jr. in 2024’s “Purlie Victorious: A Non-Confederate Romp Through the Cotton Patch,” winning a Tony.

Jacobs-Jenkins calls Aziz in his script a “deeply perceptive person and empathetic” and that could also apply to Young, She says she closely identifies with her character in “Purpose,” — they’re both Harlem-bred advocates for others, hoping to make the planet better.Franco has been free on supervised release, although he had been required to make monthly control visits to the judge.

He was also arrested and granted another supervised release in November forin his vehicle. The arrest followed an argument in an apartment complex parking lot. Another man and a woman also were detained in the confrontation. Two firearms were seized, police said. Dominican judge Viamerca Ruiz said Franco needs to report to court once a month while he is being investigated for carrying the firearm that was registered under his uncle’s name. One of Franco’s lawyers said because the gun has a license, “there’s nothing illegal about it.”

A conviction for illegally possessing a firearm could prompt a three- to five-year prison sentence.No, but he was for nearly a year after Dominican authorities opened their probe.
