FULL LENGTH: Legend has it, the Wacko is just a ghost story—a silly tale spun around the campfire to scare new counselors and thrill the campers of Camp Wa-Ka-No-Waq. But when bodies start piling up just days before the big Camp Olympics, the camp’s carefree spirit takes a dark turn. As paranoia sets in, staff and campers alike are pushed to the brink. Who—or what—is the Wacko? Who murdered Tyler? And most importantly, will they be able to survive to French Toast Stick Friday?

Imagine the absurdity of Wet Hot American Summer clashing with the suspense of Scream in this new horror-comedy. A play with multiple endings that promises a night of bloody good fun, camp-style.
