Come join us for a special reading of a brand-new play that invokes the preciousness of land and habitat and the politics of housing and development.
"In the rural Central Coast community known as Nipomo, there is a plot of land. 280-some acres. Coastal chaparral, thousands of ancient oaks, a sprawling ecosystem of native creatures. And now—an ongoing community debate about its future.
Some see this plot—aka “the Dana Reserve”—as a potential home for thousands of families in need. Others see it as an irreplaceable ecosystem, a sacred landscape, a last stand for environmental justice. Gather with us to probe these questions and more in The Nipomo Plot: An In-Progress Reading around the Dana Reserve."
After the reading, Rhizome Theater Company would appreciate hearing your thoughts and gathering your input.
