In the Lounge Are you ready to get PAMPERED!? By Catherine Weingarten
About This Show
For a long time Hester has lain awake at night, excited about the summer she can follow her mother’s footsteps and become a PAMPERED camp counselor! The only problem is that Lake Pampered is a popular-fun-sexy EXCLUSIVE all girl’s summer camp and Hester is a LOSER! Playwright The play was inspired by Catherine Weingarten’s experience as a summer camp counselor. The play asks messy questions about girl culture and expectations we put on young women to get HOTTER.
