Two families arrive, drawn to the same place. Then—suddenly—a gift from above. No sender. No instructions. Just bananas. At first, it’s a delight. A joke. A miracle. But as the fruit ripens, so does an unsettling feeling. Why are they here? And what happens when you eat one? 

The bananas pile up. Joy turns to need. Need turns to claim. Lines are drawn, rules are made, sides are taken. And soon, nothing is just a banana anymore. 

Please be advised that this show will have flashing lights and use theatrical atmospherics.

Tickets for workshops are free of charge; however, you must obtain a ticket at the door and seating is limited.
