Where the Yetis Will Be

by Ethan Katz

Synopsis

When Jack’s roommate gets into a relationship with another trans guy, he begins to rethink his life. Who is a man? What is a Yeti? And what would happen if the sun disappeared? Where the Yetis Will Be is a frenetic, episodic play about transition and how we’ve learned to define ourselves.
