Must close March 19!
Late one night, drunk-stumbling home through a neighborhood park, two siblings’ feet take root in the earth. Literally. Word of this extraordinary event spreads and brings together an otherwise disparate group of strangers, each seeking renewed purpose. The Trees by Agnes Borinsky asks us to consider: in our mercenary world, how can we have a more expansive notion of what change is possible? What of our old lives do we hold onto?
The Trees is the result of a Jody Falco and Jeffrey Steinman Commission for Emerging Playwrights.
Set and costume design for The Trees is generously supported by the Tobin Theatre Arts Fund.
