Shereen Pimentel, Amber Iman, Troy Iwata, More Set for New York Theatre Barn’s April Virtual Programming
“Mimosa, book and lyrics by Lauren Kahane and music by Danny Ursetti. Featuring performances by Diana Huey, Shereen Pimentel, Christine Toy Johnson, Tuan Malinowski, and BB Stone. Mimosa is a plant with a special gift: she can dance. Mom begs her to stop, concerned that she could be noticed by a human. Then along comes lonely, teenage human Molly, who catches sight of Mimosa dancing and is so delighted by her, she digs Mimosa up and takes her home. Together they learn to communicate in order to unite and heal their imperiled communities.”
