The real-life Benjamin, a uniquely gifted visual artist, was born with congenital hemophilia, and died at the age of 8 of AIDS related complications. This play captures the buoyant imagination that transformed his physical and emotional pain into a blaze of colors and shapes in his fanciful drawings and paintings. This story is a glorious affirmation of a child’s life, and the strength and courage of all children.
