Synopsis:
Competition is all that matters, and these kids today have got to learn that...by being pitted against each other in an absurdly grueling four-part race. Winner gets a scholarship. Come in last? You're banned from prom. The parents love it! But when different groups at the beginning, middle, and end of the pack compare notes, commiserate and meet a local cautionary tale, they decide to play a different game altogether. An inventively-staged, hilariously surreal winner of a one-act comedy. Because winning is all that matters in life, right? ...Right?!?
