We're proud to announce our next production, opening May 22nd at Metro Arts: "Peppermint Beehive," the latest play by Zoni Award-winning playwright Ashley Naftule. Directed by Dennis Frederick, Peppermint Beehive is a play about puppets, punks in love, maniac cops, dancing mummies, and the gentrification of downtown. Before you ask, "hey, is this play about what happened to Roosevelt Row-" yes, yes it is. To quote the legend Gareth Marengi: "I know writers who use subtext and they're all cowards."
Peppermint Beehive stars Sarafina Starling, Ashley Belle Vasquez, Madeleine Miller, Logan Watters, Marcella Grassa, Angela Gonzalez, Tommy Cannon, and Rick Larsen.
The play runs for two weekends- May 22nd through the 31st. Please note: while this show has puppets (a lot of puppets, designed by the great Amy Carpenter), it is NOT a kid-friendly show. Leave the kiddos at home unless you're a weirdo who loves having awkward conversations with your kids on the drive home.
