Penelope Quadrangle and the Meaning of Friendship
Amenie Groves
Content warning [May contain spoilers]
What would you do if your best friend murdered someone? For Penelope Quadrangle, the answer is simple: hide the body. Sure, her bestie Natalie doesn’t talk much, or invite her to birthday drinks, and might be a serial killer, but without Natalie, she’d be nothing. So when Natalie brutally murders a client at their workplace, priority number one is make sure nobody ever finds out. Ever. If Penelope is one thing, it’s loyal. (And extremely well-dressed. And absolutely, definitely, not lonely.)
This production is suitable for ages 12 and over.
