22 years in the future, two lab assistants hatch a plan that could change the world. All they need are a few volunteers. A raucous and provocative world premiere by Kate Douglas about sacrifice, ambition, and honeybees.

The Apiary was produced as part of 2ndStage’s New Works Festival. The play had many levels to flesh out; the sci-fi horror of feeding bees human bodies to survive, the ambition of three women seeking their individual dreams, and crafting a tangible dystopian future. At the core, the play spoke to the distance we feel from those close to us, our disconnection from the natural world, and our habit of manipulating the earth for material gain. Starring April Matthis, Carmen M. Herlihy, Taylor Schilling, Nimene Wureh and Stephanie Croussilat

Carmen M. Herlihy recieved a Lucille Lortel Nomination for best Featured Actor for her work on The Apiary
