Meet Me in the Bathroom
Meet Me in the Bathroom
written by Cassie M. Seinuk
What happens when an “innocent” picture with your favorite teacher turns into a biggest scandal the school has ever seen? When all of the people you thought you could trust seem to be the ones who started that rumor? And the only person willing to help you is your former best friend turned antagonist? How much does the truth really matter when everyone is convinced that you’re an attention seeking liar? In the girls’ bathroom of a nondescript suburban high school, five teenagers are forced to reckon with their past as it begins to bleed into what they hope for their future, all while navigating conflict of Greek tragic proportions. Narrated by a teenage Greek chorus of band geeks, cheerleaders, goths, skaters, jocks, and everything in between, Meet Me in the Bathroom gets at the heart of what it means to be a teenager and watch everything you’ve known fall apart around you. Through various workshops and performance mediums, we explored how poetry and movement inform the events of this play and the impact those events have on the lives of its characters.
