In Kennett Square, "the mushroom capital of the world," intersecting lives of immigrant families collide when a workplace injury, an unexpected romance, and the looming presence of immigration authorities have far-reaching ramifications for the entire community. From Pulitzer Prize-finalist and Mare of Easttown cast member Eisa Davis, Mushroom is the fourth locally-inspired world premiere developed through our New Play Frontiers program following Project Dawn, Mud Row, and Bayard Rustin Inside Ashland.
