SIGHTINGS is about three teens swept up in a real-life mystery in New York's Hudson Valley during the 1980s.
It's March 1983. On an eerily quiet night in a park along the Hudson River in New York, three high school seniors get the shock of their lives when they witness something in the night sky that they can't explain. Before their sighting, these teens inhabited very different worlds within their small river town. Now bound together by this unsettling mystery, the three must decide what to do, and who to tell. A secret pact, a painful struggle, and a shattering betrayal could jeopardize each teen’s hopes for the future.
SIGHTINGS is a suspenseful coming-of-age play that explores friendship and belonging, seeing and being seen. It is set against a backdrop of dramatic social change and the famous wave of unexplained phenomena that swept through New York’s Hudson Valley in the early 1980s. Based on research into the UFO sightings and centering on teen characters including characters of color, SIGHTINGS was commissioned by Paramount Hudson Valley Arts with support from the NY State Council on the Arts.
