Zen & the Diva

Our Black Box Theater programming is sustained by the generosity of the Sigel Family Foundation — Jonathan and Deborah Sloane, Robert and Susan Sigel, and Jonathan and Lisa Sigel — whose commitment helps us bring bold, intimate productions to the community.


Cousins Bridget and Liam are beyond excited to embark on a road trip through Ireland to honor their fathers’ memories. What they don’t expect is a collision of their personality differences as they travel along the Wild Atlantic Way. Zen & The Diva explores how shared family memories can unravel as two completely opposite cousins are forced to confront their own mid-life realities...and each other. From the shores of Manchester by the Sea to the pubs of Doolin, Zen & The Diva is a family dramedy that winds through the backroads of what it means to laugh, cry and remember.
