Summary

An Original LOST play written by our very own Kat Chan('26)!

Elle and Fritz are the heirs of the seemingly untouchable Kumo-Ochmann family. At their annual Thanksgiving dinner-turned-gala, they pretend they are able to leave all these worries outside, swapping whispers of scandal and exploitation for placecards and hors d'oeuvres. While Fritz struggles to grapple with the ~~failure of their activism~~ presence of their father's new allies and what changes they bring to the family company, Elle tries to keep the event together~~and the paparazzi out~~. But illusions of grandeur can only hold for so long, and reality hurts some more than others. After all, those who rise must also fall.
