The Beebles Refrain: Another Testament of Time and Art

The Beebles Refrain, the first official sequel to The Beebles Accord, picks up just a few "stage minutes" after the events of the Accord, but in those few stage minutes, much has happened off-stage. The play begins with what appears to be the Scottish Play but quickly evolves into a series of play references led by a visiting Stage Manager from Our Town. Soon, this "SM" clashes with Michael, who has become the new leader of the troupe, and Montaño, who has finally found someone he doesn't like. We watch as the characters perform their roles, all the while accepting that characters have "moved on," welcoming characters who return, and meeting a new . . . character who changes everything. And yes, the legacy of the cow lives as a refrain that reverberates through the play as the characters learn a new lesson about art, time, and identity.
