While Krisp County reels from a recent school tragedy and leadership binges on ridiculously over-the-top “proactive” safety measures, the heavy task falls on newcomer lightweight (lousy) wrestler Baily George to save the entire student body. A darkly funny and poignant play where mental health is the umbrella over which to tackle prominent issues such as body image, impacts of social media, violence, disconnectedness, and what might happen when adults mishandle young people in the name of protecting them.
