A bad boy, a mean girl, and the new girl in school are stuck in detention. They are left to their own devices to somehow learn their lessons… except there are no phones allowed.

In true high school fashion– anxiety, identity crises, and boners hide between the bookshelves. It’s not another teen movie… it’s the prom night baby of Jean Paul Satre’s No Exit and John Hughes’ the Breakfast Club.

With the discovery of his magic eight ball, disaster is bound to strike…and with Calvin’s mother bound to call at some point, it’s almost destined. This coma party is a mad mish-mash living room comedy about memory, secrets, and joy.

TBD’s inaugural production written by Sophia Snyder and directed by Brennah Leone.
