About the Show

Mariana Carreño’s darkly humorous new play puts quirky characters in situations stranger than them.

Mayor, Lollipop, and Freckles don’t know when they’ll leave this truck stop with their strange cargo, or where they’ll be instructed to transport it next, but what they do know is that things are beginning to get very odd tonight. Between unexpected guests, a strange rest stop clerk, and otherworldly energies, the less questions they ask the better. Right?
