Mascots

Drysdale High School has a problem. For the first time in their fifty-year history, they need to replace their beloved (but also deeply problematic) school mascot, Cujo. So Principal Gurgins turns to the student body to submit and select a new mascot, one that can represent (and fire up!) Drysdale for the next fifty years. During the play, we’ll see new mascots ranging from an ordinary house cat, to the Titanic, to the mineral quartz, to even a bland, inexplicable teal square. A playful comedy that explores something we all cheer for even though we’re also scared of them, a mascot.
