A new play is spreading like a weed. “Resistance,” a statewide touring show about some farmers who fight about a new herbicide, is designed to spark conversations about agriculture in the real world and the opportunities and risks that come with it.

The show was written by Iowa State University science lecturer Taylor Sklenar and produced by the Ames-based EcoTheatre Lab. It debuted earlier this month in Audubon and continues its tour in Ruthven (March 22), Milford (March 23), Grinnell (March 29) and Ames (April 5).
