WALDEN by Amy Berryman
Directed by Mathew Wright

April 9 – May 3

An intimate family drama that asks big questions about how we take care of the world we share.

In the near future, Stella and her fiancé, Bryan, are waiting at their remote cabin for Stella’s estranged twin sister, Cassie. Raised by their astronaut father to be NASA scientists, the twins have taken different paths: Cassie has just returned from a successful moon mission, while Stella left NASA behind. When Cassie arrives, old conflicts reignite, forcing the sisters to choose between life on Earth or pursuing a future in space, as humanity’s fate hangs in the balance. WALDEN is a thrilling and engrossing new play that wrestles between the gravitational pulls of duty and desire.

“WALDEN is the best kind of speculative fiction, balancing the most crucial questions about humanity’s future with the problems of three little people… This is one I’ll be thinking about for a long time, and WALDEN’s life on the stage should be just as lengthy.” – Theatermania

The cast features Marena Kleinpeter, Josh Kenji Lagager, and Porscha Shaw.
