Space Rock Sock Hop

Oh jeepers! In a small average 1950's American town, Liz, the resident loner, makes a startling discovery: one of her seemingly ordinary classmates is actually an alien invader! And that's not the only secret lurking under her nose. Can our hero sniff out the invader and save the world... and do it before the big sock hop?

    A fun, unpredictable, and clever sci-if story — we don’t get to see this genre often on stage. Weeks presents an enjoyable departure with memorable, quirky characters that stick with you. The play contains mysterious elements that slowly unravel during the course of the play with twists along the way. The genre, coupled with the characters and mystery — it’s a fun time that’s out of this world.

    Transmitters and sock hops and jello—oh my! Nothing and no one are as they seem in this quaint little town. This delightful play starts off feeling like a 50’s twist on the The Adventures of the Bailey School Kids books, but just when you begin to settle into the world, everything unravels. Each twist is more brilliant than the last. Weeks has created something truly fun, campy, and suspenseful. This play would be a blast to see staged.

    A delightful retro sci-fi throwback that takes familiar classic tropes and spins them on its head. Delightful teenage characters and a twisty plot featuring aliens, agents, and the ever-looming angst that comes with asking your dream date to the big dance. I loved it!
