Dad Don’t Read This
A new play by Eliya Smith
Directed by Chloe Claudel

Featuring Amalia Yoo, Renée-Nicole Powell, Sophie Rossman, and Kayta Thomas

In suburban Central Ohio, four girls meet weekly for a sleepover. They talk and sleep and play The Sims, a computer game that simulates real life, on a laptop. They gossip, snack, and attempt to get drunk. They strive to fulfill their needs, struggle to understand the relationship between doing and being seen, and begin to suspect they don't have a whole lot of agency.

Wait, nevermind; that's The Sims.

Dad Don’t Read This is about the people who know you before you know anything.

The running time is 95 minutes with no intermission.
