Native Gardens

One of America's top 10 most produced plays hailed as "Timely, thoughtful, and hilarious.”

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.”
