The Sun Was A Citrus Fruit
by Broke Thespians Theatre Company
Nov. 05 - Nov. 19
In the harsh Texas sun, hope grows amidst decay. When the grapefruit grove is threatened by disease, a wayward con-man, a determined farmer, and a pragmatic botanist face their toughest battle yet-against nature, their pasts, and each other. The Sun Was a Citrus Fruit is a poignant story about resilience, identity, and the roots that hold us.
Available Roles:
ELVIS - an itinerant con-man; seeking his next ruse in his hometown. A man who is less than a grapefruit, but more than a lemon.
BRIANNA (BRI) - the woman he's using; owner of a bustling grapefruit grove.
CASSIA - a botanist for the Department of Agriculture; a woman of science.
SANCHO - Elvis's old partner-in-crime; a schemer of schemes, but not a dreamer of dreams.
