The Sun Club Phillip Kenner & Alex Bush

About This Show

Thea wants to get into a good college. Peyton needs to transfer to a better school to save himself from bullying. As the pressure mounts, the night terrors take over. The tutors are hot, the gay boys are horny, and the guidance counselors are hungry. The Sun Club is an absurd, joyful, 80s-music-filled-stress-nightmare-turned-play that gives a megaphone to the little voice that tells you no matter how hard you work, you’ll never be shit.
