Snapshot: Bee-u-ti-ful
by Lindsay Price Canadian Author
Do you get along with your sister? Do you think she’s a freak? Does she think you’re the freak?
Meet Catherine: high school royalty, cheerleader, pageant queen. Meet Cosette: homeschooled wunderkind, national spelling bee champ, knows a lot about rats. When Cosette decides to leave the nest and enter Catherine’s glittering, chaotic high school world, the collision is nuclear.
A play about sisters, status, and the sting of standing out - where the pressure to fit in gets so intense, it conjures up GIANT TALKING BEES. (Yes. Literal bees. With opinions.)
Witty, weird, and full of emotional honey, the play asks what does it really mean to belong - and can a photo fix a broken bond?
Sisters. Spelling bees. Fruit leather. Frenemies. Freak-outs. Say cheese!
An awesome character piece for your next competition!
