How far would you go to protect a secret?

The woods can’t keep secrets forever…

A group of teenagers do something bad, really bad. In a panic, they cover the whole thing up. But when their secret begins to unite them and bring harmony to their once fractious lives, where is the incentive to put things right? The struggles of being a teenager are something we can all relate to, but that struggle is amplified when you accidentally kill a friend. What’s the right thing to do? Who do you tell? How do you fix something so broken?

This dark and thought-provoking play follows a group of teenage bullies whose actions lead to a tragic accident. Exploring themes of groupthink, social responsibility, morality, and peer pressure, it will have you questioning the characters and your own adolescence for the full 60 minutes.
