ORDER THIS TITLE
The premise of the play is simple; its exploration of xenophobia is not. The play explores the varied responses by high school students to an unattended backpack at a public park.
While some sequences may seem to take a lighthearted approach to the subject, there is an intentional undercurrent of discomfort. The intent is to illuminate how one misplaced object can bring out the best — and the worst — in us. A moment of indecision can create a Pandora’s box of swirling evils and muddled good intentions.
At the end of this gripping drama, our teens, like our world, are left with a lesson in acceptance and a message of hope.
