Matthew Waterman
Nisha, Mira, Charlie, and Emily are navigating relationship challenges as they finish their senior year at Bloomington High School North. Nisha and Mira are newly together but facing the challenge of wanting to attend different colleges. Meanwhile, Charlie and Emily’s relationship takes a hit when Emily’s friend kisses Charlie, but they reconcile by the end. Occasional flashbacks to Kansa and Acuera, two people from the Fort Ancient tribe, serve to parallel arguments between Nisha and Mira about their college decisions. The play ends with Nisha and Mira talking when Mira visits home for Thanksgiving break, and it’s clear that the distance has affected their relationship.
