The Sugar Bean Sisters
July 8, 9, 10 and 15, 16, 17
Written by Nathan Sanders
Directed by
Ted Pack
"A wildly funny script." -LA Weekly
"Authentic Southern Gothic comedy…You will enjoy recalling its deliciously lunatic lines!" -New York Newsday
"Deliciously offbeat…Sisterhood as an extreme sport… It's just plum impossible to resist the flights of whimsy!" -The San Jose Mercury News
In this Southern Gothic comedy of romance, murder and alien abduction, the Nettle sisters are determined to escape spinsterhood – Willie Mae by going to Salt Lake to find a good Mormon husband, and Faye by hopping on the spaceship when the “space people” return for another visit.
We meet Willie Mae and Faye in the evening as they return home to their ramshackle swamp dwelling in Sugar Bean, Florida, after a disastrous daytrip. A disturbance in the sugarcane field lures the sisters back outside, where a strange, bird-like woman suddenly appears out of the darkness of Buster Swamp, setting in motion a chain of mysterious events. Lies begin to unravel and truths are finally revealed.
