SUMMARY:The Good One
DESCRIPTION:The Good One  \nPlaywright Amy Hanson\, from Racine\, writes a gripping\, emotionally charged family drama about the limits of forgiveness. In an ICU\, two sisters and their mother confront dire news: the youngest\, Piper\, is on life support after an overdose. As the night unfolds\, buried resentments\, dark humor\, and long held secrets surface. Part family drama\, part meditation on what addiction does to relationships\, The Good One explores the messy\, the funny\, the poignant\, and the unexpected.\n*If this were a movie\, we think it would be rated “PG 13.” \nDates: July 24\, 25\, 26; July 31\, August 1\, 2\nTimes: Fridays at 7:30 p.m.; Saturdays at 4:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.; Sundays at 2:30 p.m.\nLocation: Over Our Head Players\, Sixth Street Theatre\nAddress: 318 Sixth Street\, Racine\, WI \nThis production is part of World Premiere Wisconsin\, a statewide festival celebrating new plays and musicals throughout 2026. The Good One is supported in part by a grant from Racine Arts Council’s ArtSeed Program and by the Wisconsin Arts Board with funds from the State of Wisconsin.
