FIREHOUSE MAINSTAGE

Water by the Spoonful
Written by Quiara Alegría Hudes
Virginia Premiere!

This haunting and melodic Pulitzer Prize-winning play serves as a testament to the power of family and friendship for those slipping through the widening cracks of our fractured society. Elliot, a wounded veteran, returns to his home in Philadelphia only to face another heart-wrenching loss. As Elliot and his cousin Yaz navigate their grief, Elliot's biological mother Odessa finds solace and strength in a Narcotics Anonymous support group she moderates online. This gripping play explores the complexities of family, addiction, and healing in the face of overwhelming odds.
