My Brother's a Genius

Accessible Edition using Helvetica Neue LT Std (light, bold) font with black ink on cream paper. In real life, her actual brother is a genius. Title aside, everything in this show is fiction – but that doesn’t meanit isn’t true. Poetry, grime and movement unite in Debris Stevenson’s explosive new play about learning to fall, fail and find our own ways to fly. Daisy and Luke are twins navigating life in a high-rise council estate, where ambition and self-doubt collide. Both twins have labels thrust upon them: Daisy the “idiot” and Luke the “genius”. But will their bond and shared dream of flying launch them up together or crash them apart?This edition was published to coincide with the Theatre Centre, Sheffield Theatres and National Youth Theatre co-production in January 2026.
