Pay-What-You-Can Preview Night: Because we believe theater should be accessible to all, community members are welcome to attend the final dress rehearsal of each mainstage production free of charge, which will take place on the Wednesday prior to opening night at 7:30pm. Seating will be open, and attendees may choose to give a donation as they are able.

About “Beets”:

Desperate to continue producing food during the height of WWII, Fred Hunt concedes to allow German POWs from a nearby camp to work his family’s fields, despite the fact that he is furious about his own son being an injured POW overseas.

In an attempt to bring some joy back into their home, Isabelle Hunt begins to discreetly encourage their 17-year-old daughter Anna to get to know one of the young soldiers–igniting wrath from Fred that calls the true meaning of shared humanity into question and examines whether a person must be “deserving” of love and acceptance from others.
