Plan-B's 20th Anniversary Season Continues with MESA VERDE, Closes 3/6

Matthew Ivan Bennett's most personal play to date explores the relationship between two estranged sisters (played by April Fossen and Christy Summerhays) and their late mother (played by Teresa Sanderson, who also portrays several other characters) in this complex quest for hope and healing. A play about facing family. Directed by Cheryl Ann Cluff.

MESA VERDE is a play for sisters, mothers, daughters and anyone that's ever faced their family dynamics and walked away wiser. It follows Tamara and Tabitha, two sisters who come together when one of them falls sick with ovarian cancer, allowing them to finally air their feelings about their mother, the way she died, the way she lived and taught them to live. MESA VERDE is about seeing the joy in our broken relationships and releasing the past.
