Step into the wild, surreal world of A Beautiful Day in November on the Banks of the Greatest of the Great Lakes, Kate Benson’s sharply inventive play that turns the quintessential American family dinner into a high-stakes sporting event. With the flair of live commentary and the tension of a championship match, this offbeat comedy slices into tradition, family dynamics, and the chaos beneath the surface of civility. Hilarious, amusingly unsettling, and strikingly original, Benson’s play invites audiences to witness the greatest Thanksgiving in sports history.

Cady Heron may have grown up on an African savanna, but nothing prepared her for the wild and vicious ways of her strange new home: suburban Illinois. How will this naïve newbie rise to the top of the popularity pecking order? By taking on The Plastics, a trio of lionized frenemies led by the charming but ruthless Regina George. But when Cady devises a plan to end Regina’s reign, she learns the hard way that you can’t cross a queen bee without getting stung.
