Join us for a staged reading of The Final Boss written by Alison Reeger Cook and directed by Diane Jamieson. Part of the FIRST DRAFT staged reading series presented by the Edmonds Driftwood Players and Driftwood After Dark.
Synopsis: Moonscar and Squeak are two great adventurers on a quest to discover an ancient gate that will lead to their hearts' greatest desires. The only catch? They can't get through the gate without defeating the Final Boss. And the Final Boss is nowhere to be found.implic While waiting for their fates to unfold, the two companions reveal secrets that start to test them in ways that no battles, monsters, or feats of daring have before, making them question the very nature of the world they live in. Matters only get more complicated as two new combatants find them, one of which is Moonscar's ex. Maybe this whole "quest to end all quests" isn't all it's cracked up to be.
Expected Run Time: 75 minutes, with no intermission. Playwright Feedback session is after the reading and it is optional to stay and participate.
