ABOUT THE SHOW
Abeba in the Tall Grass, written by Jonathan Norton and directed by Nikki Mirza, is about a fifth-grade aspiring horticulturist and the urban garden that has become her sacred space. Through encounters with the school goof-offs, she realizes that, like plants need water and light to flourish, people need friendship and community to thrive.
