Cultures and gardens clash, turning well-intentioned neighbors into feuding enemies in this heartfelt and raucous comedy by Karen Zacarias.
Pablo, a rising attorney, and doctoral candidate Tania, his very pregnant wife, have just purchased the home next to Frank and Virginia, a well-established D.C. couple with a prize-worthy English garden. It's smiles and neighborly politeness until a minor disagreement over a long-standing fence line spirals into an all-out border dispute, exposing both couples’ notions of race, taste, class, and privilege.
