“So Tania has a problem with my plants because they are from somewhere else? Because they are…immigrant plants?”

In the suburbs of Washington D.C., high-powered lawyer Pablo Del Valle and his pregnant, doctoral candidate wife Tania, have just purchased their dream home. Next door neighbors and long-time residents Frank and Virginia welcome them with open arms until Tania and Pablo set to work on building a fence and discover that their property line is 2 feet into Frank’s beloved garden. This creates friction between the neighbors and an all-out border dispute erupts. Can such different people from totally different backgrounds find a way to compromise? How can you love your neighbor when you’re sure they’re invading your space?

Tickets: $30/adult, $25/senior, $8/student, $6/Quest card (please contact the box office for details about this rate), Pay what you will/preview performance is September 8.
