The Sugar Bean Sisters

Lake Worth Playhouse
713 Lake Ave. Lake Worth

Romance, murder and alien abduction abound in the Southern Gothic comedy The Sugar Bean Sisters. The Nettle sisters are determined to escape spinsterhood -- Willie Mae by going to Salt Lake and finding a good Mormon husband and Faye by hopping on the spaceship when the "space people" return for another visit. The past and present collide as the secrets of Buster Swamp are revealed in this "wildly funny script" (LA Weekly). An off-Broadway hit, The Sugar Bean Sisters earned writer Nathan Sanders an Oppenheimer Award nomination from Newsday for the "most impressive debut of a new American playwright," and has since become a regional favorite across the U.S. See the source of all that acclaim when The Sugar Bean Sisters comes to the Lake Worth Playhouse.
