World Premiere
The Sensational Sea Mink-ettes
Stadium Lights. ✨ Screaming Fans. 🤩 One Shot at Excellence. 💣
The Sensational Sea Mink-ettes are days away from their Homecoming half-time dance performance and the pressure is on. The student body, the administration, the alumni, their families — everyone is expecting perfection. As the big day creeps closer, the women must contend with flaring tempers, bodies pushed to their limits, and what it means to be a team in Vivian J.O. Barnes’ funny and surprising world premiere play.
