PEACHES (in development)

a play within a play within a peach

PEACHES is an irreverent, poignant and surreal exploration of redemption and repair. A peach farmer, Greg, and his apprentice, Prince, accidentally grow a play on a peach tree. With the peach orchard as their theatre, they decide to “do the play” in order to confront their conflicting realities and rediscover common ground.
