In Feeding Beatrice, a young Black couple eager to buy their first home moves into a crumbling old mansion for a suspiciously low price. Soon, they discover they’re not alone—Beatrice, a mysterious white woman from another era, haunts the house with sinister charm. As her influence grows, the couple must confront the home’s—and the country’s—racial and historical ghosts. Equal parts horror and social satire, this haunting play explores privilege, assimilation, and the cost of belonging.
