Irondale Presents TOMATO PLANT GIRL in Brooklyn Today, 10/13
Irondale presents Wesley Middleton's "Tomato Plant Girl", a powerful exploration of friendship that delights young audiences with its sharp dialogue, physical action and playful, high-energy conflict. This family friendly presentation of "Tomato Plant Girl", directed by Amanda Hinkle and performed by the Members of The Irondale Ensemble and the IronDale Young Company, is written by Fort Greene resident and national playwright Wesley Middleton and is a magical story about closeness, compromise, and growth that explores the question of what it means to have, and be, a friend.

Plays will be selected at least two months in advance of the proposed reading date. Play submissions are accepted from any playwright.
