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're getting closer.
Following a group of camp counselors trying to 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 Grown-Ups is written by Skylar Fox & Simon Henriques, with a cast featuring Emily E Garrison, Simon Henriques, Chloe Joy Ivanson, Abby Melick, and Justin Phillips. The production will be directed by Skylar Fox (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child).
