small town icons
May 31 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
It’s the night before the opening night of Mount Vernon, Ohio’s next community theater production: a barely legal adaptation of OUR TOWN. The production’s “Emily,” Sabrina, is stuck at home, trying to rehearse. A mob sits outside of her house, demanding an answer for the disappearance of Mr. K, a popular science teacher… who burned Sabrina during a class experiment. Sabrina’s “George,” Kimberly, arrives to help Sabrina deal with the threat of danger outside. All hell breaks loose when their former friend and the daughter of the science teacher, Kelly, invites herself over to bury the hatchet… and to figure out where her missing father could be. To make things even worse, the girl that Kelly bullied into the hospital, Willow, is discharged and arrives at Sabrina’s house. As the night goes on, the tension builds between the girls as secrets are revealed: bullying, evidence being destroyed, and poisoned cookies. Seemingly alone after a crazy night, Sabrina, Willow, & Kimberly are thrust into Grover’s Corners and an uncertain future. small town icons is an unflinching look at poverty, bullying, friendship, and the agonizing pursuit of a picture-perfect life.
