Please join us for The Pineapple Project, an original play about gender, creativity, and each child’s freedom to be who they are.

The Pineapple Project was born during a moment of play between actor Mal Malme and her niece in which her niece said “Boys Can’t be Princesses!” As a gender non-conforming person and theater artist, Mal couldn’t ignore this statement. This led Mal, and colleagues Becca A. Lewis, and Renee Farster-Degenhardt to create a theatre piece for children ages 3-8 to broaden the gender conversation and validate each child’s identity.
