Show Summary
What do A Christmas Carol, The Wizard of Oz and Dracula have in common? Jennifer Brenner is about to find out.
In a last ditch effort to save the financially-strapped Bleeding Heart Academy from bleeding out, the school commissions one-time novelist (and D-list BHA alum) Jennifer Brenner to write its check to salvation in the form of a Christmas fundraiser – an unholy mash-up of the three most popular, high-school plays. But saddled with a drama club that has never performed in public, high school ghosts, donor decrees, and an abundance of Madisons, the yellow brick road to creation is looking more like a crypt. Can Jennifer slap together a brand new play while still satisfying the powers that be?
This all-female farce with dynamic roles for artists reminds us that when the world drains you of lifeblood, it’s never too late to change— and perhaps who you were meant to be was right there all along.
