After returning from a year-long Moon mission, Cassie, a NASA botanist, finds herself in a remote cabin in the woods, where her estranged twin sister, Stella, a former NASA architect, has found a new life with her Earth Advocate fiancé, Bryan. As the sisters attempt to pick up the pieces of the rivalry that broke them apart, they grapple with perhaps the single biggest question that confronts humanity: is saving Earth still a possibility or should we commit ourselves to colonizing another planet?

Two centuries after a murky agreement binds a Civil War era plantation family to the enslaved people working the land, the white and Black Prioleau descendants must finally determine who is the rightful heir.

A cast of six actors play both the Civil War and present-day characters, and each night the play begins at a different point in the timeline when a cast member spins a wheel bearing the names of all the scenes in the play.

PLANTATION BLACK’s innovative structure evokes the way history repeats itself, and the (sometimes) random ways we learn about our national and personal history.

*Arrive 20 minutes early for a lobby Raffle Spin and help determine where in history we start that performance of PLANTATION BLACK.
