This simple to stage one act by award-winning playwright Brian Hampton packs a powerful punch as it brings Gossip to life and gives its infectious spread a visible presence onstage. A group of high school theatre students befriends a charming yet sinister new student named Gossip. She immediately makes herself right at home as she secretly manipulates and twists the truth to get what she wants. But as her new friends begin to figure it all out, they turn on her as ruthlessly as she went after them, leading to a surprisingly twisted ending.
