Sibs follows the lives of two siblings from babies to old age, as they fight and laugh and annoy each other. As the adult siblings deal with their parents' estate—the play flashes through the many stages of their history, from infancy through the rich miseries of growing up, the alien landscape of adolescence and teen years, the inevitable confusions of adulthood.
