Miss Teen

By Michele Riml

A shy teenage girl unexpectedly enters, and wins, a local beauty contest. In turn, her single mother gets drawn into what happens next and resorts to increasingly desperate measures to meet the demands of pageant stardom.

A poignantly comic meditation on family, ambition and what it means to be beautiful.

“

...the play is timeless.
