To Bee or Not to Bee

Farmer James has lost his bees; there’s only gruel to eat. Now, the townspeople (the audience) have arrived to protest, chanting, “There’s no good food; we’re in a bad mood!”

To Bee or Not to Bee tells James’ comic, tragic, and ultimately hopeful story—complete with puppetry, clowning, dance, live music, and much audience participation. Piti Theatre Company created the show to raise awareness about the honeybee’s plight and give children and adults tools for helping pollinators thrive in their communities.

This program, sponsored by NEFA, will be held outdoors in the HCA amphitheater. In the event of rain, it will move indoors to the Delbridge Family Performance Space.
