DC Regional Premiere
THE GARBOLOGISTS by Lindsay Joelle
Directed by Shanara Gabrielle
JANUARY 30 - FEBRUARY 23, 2025
A fresh, quirky buddy comedy about two unlikely partners, thrown together in the cab of a nineteen-ton garbage truck. They spend their first shifts one-upping each other and sparring about when house rules outweigh union rules, but as their lives become increasingly intertwined, these two essential workers from different worlds discover there’s more that binds them than picking up the trash.
