Fefu and Her Friends, by María Irene Fornés Directed by Carin Bratlie Wethern
About Fefu and Her Friends:
Set in a New England country house in the 1930s, the play follows a circle of women whose conversations and confidences reveal both sharp humor and haunting truths. What makes this production unique is its immersive design—audiences will move through the rooms of the mansion, experiencing each scene in the space where it unfolds. More than a play, Fefu and Her Friends becomes a living, breathing event that connects story, place, and audience in a way that can only happen within the walls of the Searle Mansion.

Celebrando Fornés
Theatre Pro Rata’s production of Fefu and Her Friends is proudly part of Celebrando Fornés / Celebrating Fornés, a national initiative led by the Fornés Institute that invites theaters, colleges, and artists across the United States to stage productions, readings, and events dedicated to the work of playwright María Irene Fornés. The initiative aims to bring renewed attention to one of the most influential voices in American theater and expand the presence of her work on stages and in classrooms. By producing Fefu and Her Friends, Theatre Pro Rata joins a nationwide community of artists honoring Fornés’ legacy and introducing new audiences to her groundbreaking approach to theatrical form and storytelling.
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
