June and Lurie have just moved into their dream home—but something’s not right.  Beatrice, their peculiar new houseguest, arrives uninvited and refuses to leave.  And while she may appear soft-spoken and polite, her presence grows more unsettling by the day... and her appetite goes far beyond food. 

As the couple tries to navigate her bizarre behavior, they begin to uncover disturbing truths—not only about Beatrice, but about themselves.  With elements of psychological horror, dark humor, and eerie tension, Feeding Beatrice is a theatrical thrill ride that explores race, identity, and the terrifying cost of keeping up appearances. 

“Feeding Beatrice is a frighteningly beautiful feast of truth, beauty, and passion served by the spoonful down that jagged, trackless route of the American Dream,” said Director David Bricquet.  “At first, it tastes so savory in your mouth.  But over time, it sours and smiles goodbye into oblivion.  It is a tale whose essence is devoured by all, but considered by few.” 

Feeding Beatrice will be directed by David Bricquet.  This Robot Dreams will design the set, and Claire Daniel will stage manage the production.  The cast is as follows: 

Tanisha Watkins – June Hayden Crawford – Lurie 

Kady Tilley – Beatrice Amir Cooper – Leroy  

Feeding Beatrice runs approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes long, including a 15-minute intermission.  This show may not be suitable for all audiences and is recommended for ages 18+.  Please be advised that this production contains content that may be upsetting to some patrons.  

The Baileys with Fairway Independent Mortgage will sponsor the run of Feeding Beatrice.
