FLORA MEETS A BEE is Plan-B's 7th Annual Free Elementary School Tour

Eight-year-old Flora has lived in six foster homes since the age of i??ve. One day Flora meets Bee and their budding friendship changes everything. A humorous and heartwarming tale of foster care, the importance of the hive and the power of friendship.

Although many plays about foster care exist for grades 5+, our research shows that FLORA MEETS A BEE may just be the i??rst such play created specii??cally for grades K-3. It's also our first bilingual FEST play!

35 minutes, including 5-minute pre-show and 5-minute post-show discussions

Directed by Jerry Rapier | Designed by Arika Shockmel with Ariana Broumas Farber as Flora and Brenda Hattingh as Bee (secondary cast: Isabella Reeder as Flora and Darby Mest as Bee)
