The Beehive State by Rob Lauer: A Readers' Theater Production

Mormonish Podcast's Rebecca and Landon are joined by playwrite Rob Lauer as we present Rob’s award winning play "Beehive State" as a readers' theater theatrical production.

The play centers around a polygamous family in post manifesto era Utah and was written by Rob Lauer, who is a post Mormon and now a member of Reformed Mormonism. He is also the former director of The Hill Cumorah Pageant.

The play is about the complex era of post manifesto polygamy in Utah.! It’s a wonderful play with humor and wit, yet deals intelligently with the serious dynamics of a family in 1903 still living "The Principle" in a changing church.

The play was originally performed on Sunday, March 17, 2024
