By Agnes Borinsky

Late one night, drunk-stumbling home through a neighborhood park, two siblings’ feet take root in the earth. Literally. Word of this extraordinary event spreads and brings together an otherwise disparate group of strangers, each seeking renewed purpose. The Trees by Agnes Borinsky asks us to consider: in our mercenary world, how can we have a more expansive notion of what change is possible? What of our old lives do we hold onto? 

Special Conversation with the playwright and director! 

Following the Sunday, 10/13 matinee, we will host a facilitated conversation with playwright Agnes Borinsky and director Adil Mansoor, in the Rauh Theatre. Ticket holders are invited to attend!
