Persephone Theatre proudly presents "This is How We Got Here," a poignant and hopeful exploration of family dynamics, grief, and healing. Set against the backdrop of a once close-knit family grappling with loss, this traditional family drama unfolds as the characters navigate their way through forgiveness, humor, and love. The delicate bonds of sisterhood, friendship, and marriage are tested, only to be transformed by an unexpected visit from a fox, leading to a profound change in their lives.

The production, directed by Katie German and featuring a talented cast including Danny Knight, Kathleen MacLean, Skye Brandon, Jennifer Dawn Bishop, and Aren Okemaysim, promises an intimate and moving experience. With a runtime of 80 minutes without an intermission, the play offers a stunning and hopeful look at how we support one another through life's challenges.

Content Advisory: The play addresses themes of grief, homophobia, and discussions of suicide, and is recommended for ages 13 and above.

This is How We Got Here

Remai Arts Centre

For the second year in a row, the Minnesota State Fair rejects Doris Rubenstein’s traditional kosher dill pickles. When Doris confronts the judges, it becomes clear that they don’t understand her traditional Jewish brining process. Disappointed but not defeated, Doris sets out to uncover why they’re not receiving their due ranking. As she digs deeper, Doris discovers there’s more than pickles fermenting, there’s hell to raise. A Pickle is a darkly comedic look at prejudice and the power of Chutzpah (outrageous gumption). Based on true events.
