Set at a New England college in 1962, George and Martha invite a younger couple over for a nightcap following an academic party. What begins as a seemingly polite yet drunken affair quickly turns into a night of revelry, debauchery and despair, exposing the vulnerability of all four characters.


Female driven, immersive and bold, THE FIRE WEEDS stages one of the masterpieces of American theater in a production for our times. Unflinching and raw in its depiction of human relationships, the play changed America when it premiered on Broadway in 1962. As powerful and relevant then as it is now, the play explores marriage and women in a time of societal upheaval and change.


The production features Lin Gathright, Carl Palmer*, James M. Reilly* and Jaclyn Bethany
Produced by The Fire Weeds at Big Couch New Orleans

Directed by Jaclyn Bethany
