While soldiers fight abroad in WW2, those remaining in Westchester County strive to make a difference on the Homefront by creating Victory Gardens, supplementing limited food supply. But the pressures on the homefront extend much further than simply growing produce. A child worries her failing rooftop garden is an omen of misfortune for her father’s return from a POW camp. An infertile woman throws her purpose into feeding neighborhood families. A wealthy man whose chemical plant is commissioned by the government for war purposes struggles with how to leave a meaningful legacy not tainted with warfare. These stories, and more, are given light in The Victory Garden Plays, a series of vignettes exploring people’s journeys with their new realities of love, growth, life and death.
The performance features Abigail Grizzle, Emma Kathryn, Ali Rose Harton, Alex Wade, Sharon Spenser, Rob Leonard, John Michael Hersey, Megan Benjamin, Audrey Casinelli, Ryan Sett, Stephanie Schwartz, and Betsy Walkup
The performance is approximately 1 hour 15 minutes long.
