ABOUT THE PLAY
Do good fences really make good neighbors?
Cultures clash when the new neighbors' plans for a “native garden,” along with a property line disagreement, threaten the perfectly pristine posies and a chance at a Horticultural Society Award for the long-time residents next door. Things turns into an all-out border dispute and no one comes out smelling like a rose when good intentions and bad manners bloom in Karen Zacarias’s brilliant comedy.
“A true breath of comic fresh air. It’s a biting, perceptive, and ultimately hopeful sendup to our fraught relationships with those around us – even right next door.”
