About Feeding Beatrice
June and Lurie are the proud new owners of an old gothic home that takes “fixer-upper” to a whole new level. For starters, they have a haunting new houseguest - and she’s ravenously hungry. They do their best to keep her fed and happy, but the insatiable Beatrice demands more, burrowing deeper into their lives. As she unearths secrets with explosive consequences, this young couple must decide what they are willing to do to exorcise Beatrice forever.
A creepy, dark comedy that evokes the terror of Jordan Peele's Get Out and the suspense of Hitchcock’s Psycho, Feeding Beatrice deftly explores questions of race, class and the American Dream.
CONTENT ADVISORY: Feeding Beatrice is suitable for adults and older teenage audiences. The gothic tale contains mature themes and actions, supernatural elements, and adult language. Please be aware that this production has moments in which racial epithets are used.

“This play is a thought-provoking, sobering, but often times laugh-out-loud gothic tale, smartly crafted to work on many complex intellectual levels.”
