The Grown-Ups
The campers are all finally asleep, and the lake is getting quiet. Have a beer; make a s’more; tell a scary story. Figure out what you’re going to have to do in the morning to keep camp fun and safe, without letting the kids find out about…well, you've seen the news... I just got a push notification- they are getting closer.
How can a group of camp counselors mold the leaders of tomorrow when tomorrow is looking bleaker and bleaker? THE GROWN UPS explores the traditions that change us, what it takes for us to change them, and how to change yourself when you’re hopelessly, tragically not prepared for this.
- "The play is like Are You Afraid of the Dark? for the pandemic age: a woodsy thriller where the ghost stories sound all too real".
- "The actors take turns providing narration, which moves the story along fluidly".
- "The play keeps the balance between humor, suspense, nostalgia, and possibility just right".
- "The grown-ups is both a deep critique and a hysterical parody of the era we live. The Grown-Ups is a modern tragedy, that is also the only modern play that successfully mentions Twitter."
