The JonBenét Game by Tori Keenan-Zelt
NNPN Rolling World Premiere ​
​
It’s not whether you win or lose…

When best friends Molly and Rae were 12, they secretly played JonBenét Ramsey at sleepovers. Twenty years later, in the wake of Molly's tragic death, Rae returns to her hometown school as a guidance counselor. But when Molly’s 12-year-old daughter, Hazel, knocks on Rae’s door, she and Rae slide back into the game, and the dark and liminal spaces of their unresolved grief. Directed by Carla Milarch.

Midwest Literary Walk draws visitors from near and far. Originally conceived as an event to both celebrate literature and introduce the Chelsea community to visitors, this single-day event features nationally recognized authors held in public venues, with time to check out downtown between events. This year’s Walk offers attendees the chance to see one of Chelsea’s most iconic venues and experience a play reading at the Purple Rose Theatre, while engaging with the actors and playwrights. Our three visiting authors include Chris La Tray, Carmen Bugan, and Nathan Pyle. Lit Walk is intended to be a celebration of literature, reading, and the Chelsea community; removing barriers between everyday people and fantastic literature and the arts. All events are open to the public with no admittance charge.
