    If “Shrek” and “Monty Python” had unprotected sex and ended up making a baby, it might look and sound a little something like “The Figs.”

    American Stage ’s last show of the season also marks the world premiere of the piece by playwright Doug Robinson—a whimsical work that leaves a lot of room for the audience to use their imaginations as cast members (including Kayland Jordan, pictured) each play multiple roles in a story about a tyrannical king who’s dangerously obsessed with figs, which he naturally cannot grow himself.


    His solution to the issue ends up leading theater lovers through director Helen R. Murray’s rule-breaking production which is a celebration of love and also kindness.

    "The Figs" is at American Stage in St. Petersburg Wednesday-Sunday through Aug. 4, and tickets are still available for $28 & up.
