The world is no longer plentiful, and the hive is growing restless. If the divine right of queens is no longer enough to keep the hive secure, how do they survive starvation? How does a vain, aging queen accept the need for a successor? How far can a subservient go outside her bounds? To Serve The Hive is a queer political thriller and a climate crisis drama set in a beehive (all the characters are bees).
Performances will take place on March 1st at 7pm, March 2nd at 2pm & 7pm, March 3rd at 2pm, March 7th and 8th at 7pm, and March 9th at 2pm & 7pm. The 2pm performance on March 2nd and the 7pm performance on March 8th will be mask-required; as of now, masks will be optional but encouraged at all other performances!
