SCOUNDREL & SCAMP THEATRE presents THE APIARY - ONE PERFORMANCE ONLY

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

 

The Scoundrel & Scamp Theatre

presents

THE APIARY

By Kate Douglas

 

 

 

ONE PERFORMANCE ONLY

Sunday, April 26, 2026

For Scoundrels & Scamps Ages 13+

 

 

About the Play

Twenty-two years in the future, honeybees are nearly extinct—kept alive only inside sterile laboratory environments. Zora is overqualified for her new lab job, but she loves bees, or what is left of them. When an unfortunate incident leads to a sudden boost in the bees’ numbers, Zora and her coworker Pilar must decide just how far they’re willing to go to keep the population growing.

Part eco-thriller, part philosophical reckoning, The Apiary asks urgent questions about climate change, bodily autonomy, and scientific ethics—wrapped in a story at once intimate and sweeping. The play drifts from the naturalistic into the poetic and magical, holding space for many lenses at once.

 

 

 

About the Playwright

Kate Douglas is an American playwright and graduate of the Experimental Theatre Wing at NYU Tisch School of the Arts. The Apiary received its world premiere as part of Second Stage Theater’s inaugural Next Stage Festival in New York, which spotlights early-career playwrights, where it was directed by Kate Whoriskey (Sweat, Clyde’s, Ruined) and featured a cast that included Taylor Schilling. The play was praised for its resonant exploration of ecological crisis and human moral complexity.
