Farm Arts Collective tours the climate change extravaganza Dream on the Farm to the Scranton Cultural Center. In this romp, Dream on the Farm follows two scientists, Carl Sagan and Lynn Margulis as they explore the contemporary world through both a micro and macroscopic lens in a journey to help humanity solve the climate crisis. The ensemble of actors, musicians, stilt-walkers and farmers will bring this touring version of Dream on the Farm to communities across the northeast in 2022.

LADY CAPULET Review from ScreenCraft
"The place NURSE holds in ROSE's life works really well to help us see how - outside of Nurse - she's really not well watched after. This lacking amount of care given to her beyond Nurse - and the lack of real power over Rose that Nurse has - makes for the most compelling fundamental element of Rose's character, as well as highlighting and adding depth to how she turns into the Lady Capulet everyone knows."
