Details
In the garage of her suburban duplex, twelve-year-old Josephine makes apocalypse preparedness videos and posts them to YouTube. Vic takes Jujitsu. Maureen encrypts her text messages and hordes matches (because lighters fail). Sarah stuffs her knapsack with extra socks, granola, water filtration tablets and Tolkien novels, because “you don’t know where you’re going to be… when it happens… you might not be at home.” Convinced the world at large can’t be trusted to prioritize the well-being of adolescent girls in the event of a cataclysmic event (or just in general), this determined troupe of 8th grade ‘doomers’ are committed to preparing for survival in the post-collapse society they anticipate inheriting. Judy Blume meets Rambo, WROL (Without Rule of Law) is a darkly comic coming-of-age story for complicated times. (from https://www.michaelajeffery.com/without-rule-of-law)
Director Shawna Mefferd Kelty had this to say about the play: “WROL is such an incredibly relevant play. It's more than a coming of age story. It's about how to these young characters create agency in a world where voices, in particular the voices of young women, have been silenced.”
WROL (Without Rule of Law) runs April 10 to 11, starting at 7:30 p.m., and April 12 at 2 p.m. in the Hartman Theatre within the John Myers Building. General Admission is $12, with $5 tickets available to all S.A. Members. Tickets will be available at our digital box office (https://campusgroups.plattsburgh.edu/musthe/events/), or at our CASH ONLY box office an hour before the event begins.
