Lemons Lemons Lemons Lemons Lemons at BNH Stage

In a world where spoken language is restricted to a set number of words per day, the choices about what is said – and not said – take on profound meaning. Lemons Lemons Lemons Lemons Lemons follows Oliver and Bernadette, two people grappling with the limits of communication and the impact it has on their relationship. Hilarious yet poignant, the play explores what happens when we can no longer speak freely and how humans continue to communicate through actions, body language, and the spaces between words.

In times of increasing uncertainty, playwright Sam Steiner’s dystopian romantic comedy, tempered with hope and laughter, is exactly the type of story we need. “I think people laugh most days. I really do feel that even in the most brutal of circumstances, you can hear great laughter,” he explained in a 2023 interview with Port. “Well, when horrible things happen, that’s also when humanity can be so good.”

The theme for tKAPOW’s 18th season is ‘reverberate.’ tKAPOW will explore a series of shows that speak directly to how history has a way of reverberating into the present. “We are excited to start new conversations,” said Artistic Director Matt Cahoon. “We are excited to learn from the past and impact the future. And, most of all, we are excited to partner with our audiences to share in the communal experience of live theatre.”

ASL Interpretation will be available at the Sunday, September 21 matinee performance at 2:00 pm
