You have to wonder why there isn't a word in the English language for the fireworks that go off in your brain when you finally kiss someone you've wanted for years. Or for the intimacy and tenderness you feel as you hold the hand of a suffering friend. A generation after the height of the AIDS crisis, what is it like to be a young gay man in New York? How many words are there now for the different kinds of pain, the different kinds of love? Matthew López's The Inheritance premieres in two parts at the Young Vic Theatre, London, in March 2018.

Matthew López is the author of The Inheritance, which premiered in 2018 at the Young Vic before transferring to the West End and Broadway. Matthew won the Tony, Olivier, Evening Standard, Drama Desk, London Critics Circle, Outer Critics Circle, Drama League, and GLAAD Awards for Best Play for The Inheritance. His play The Sentinels premiered in London in 2011 as part of Headlong Theatre's Decade plays. Other plays include The Whipping Man, Somewhere, The Legend of Georgia McBride, and Zoey's Perfect Wedding. In 2023, Matthew co-wrote and directed the film adaptation of Red, White and Royal Blue.
