AUDITION FOR THIS PLAY.


     Perhaps Beth Henley’s profoundest play, Abundance turns the dusty spirit of the Old West on its head. Two mail-order brides, Bess and Macon, meet when they come to the Wyoming territory in the late 1860s, looking for love and adventure. Of course they find neither and both. Abundance recasts the mythic American landscape in the most intimate terms of love & violence, giving & stealing of self, sheltering a friend & “tearing the wings off an angel” to fly away.
