THE WATERFALL Extends at WP Theater

Due to popular demand, The Waterfall will extend its run at WP Theater through March 8th. The Waterfall opened this past Sunday, February 15th. The Waterfall stars Patrice Johnson Chevannes (Pose, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel) as Emi and Natalie Paul (Crown Heights, The Sinner) as Bean.

The Waterfall is written by Phanésia Pharel (Dead Girl's Quinceñera, R&B) and directed by Taylor Reynolds (Primary Trust, Fat Ham). This production is produced and presented in partnership with Thrown Stone Theatre Company and is underwritten by Dee Dee Colabella.

Returning home to assist her mother after a hospitalization, Haitian-American Bean soon finds her confidence shaken by her mother's idea of what her life should be. Stuck at home, with nowhere to run from her mother's ideas of marriage, motherhood, and malady, Bean must ask, “Do you know who you want to be? And are you brave enough to own it?” The Waterfall is an intimate and aching two-hander about the generational divides around family, womanhood, and the idea of the American Dream.
