DIRECTOR: Evren Odcikin (he/him)

DRAMATURG: Adam Ashraf Elsayigh (he/him)

Three southerners explore whether the second chances they are desperately seeking might be found with one another. Witty and resilient teenage trans femme Zara, rough-edged builder Colt, and protective Muslim immigrant Kaysar are each on their own journeys through landscapes of hope, survival, trauma, and the persistent call of joy. When their paths intertwine, new possibilities emerge for what the trio might mean to each other in this fresh, deeply-felt comedic drama about belonging.
