August 8th-25th Native Gardens is a contemporary comedy play by Karen Zacarías that explores themes of cultural conflict, generational differences, and the clash between tradition and progress. Set in a suburban neighborhood, the story centers around two couples: Pablo and Tania Del Valle, a young Latino couple who have recently moved in, and their next-door neighbors, Frank and Virginia Butley, an older white couple with a meticulously maintained garden. Tensions rise when a disagreement over a property line and landscaping choices escalates into a humorous yet thought-provoking battle that exposes deeper issues of race, privilege, and the complexities of modern coexistence. Through sharp wit and insightful dialogue, the play highlights the challenges and potential for understanding in a diverse society.
