WATER BY THE SPOONFUL | by Quiara Alegría Hudes
March 21 - April 13, 2024 | Directed by Alexandra Hernandez
Pulitzer Prize Winner
We meet in Philadelphia, where Elliot has returned from Iraq and is struggling
to find his place in the world. We meet in an online chat room—a digital sanctuary
where recovering addicts fight to keep each other alive, hour by hour,
day by day. We meet in the moment and outside of the moment as boundaries of
family and community are stretched across continents and cyberspace.
Birth families splinter and online families collide in this beautiful play that reminds us
of the power of connection and the value of forgiveness.
Water by the Spoonful is a heartfelt meditation on lives on the brink of redemption.
