Bigfoot by Meghan Brown

A darkly funny high-stakes suspense play about sibling rivalry, quantum physics, and the terrifying power of a good story.

Disgraced physicist Holly has arrived in rural Oregon to fulfill her mother’s dying wish: pick up her Bigfoot conspiracy theorist sister Alyssa and transport her back to San Francisco for one last family Thanksgiving. But combative Alyssa refuses to leave the woods until she sees the Big Guy himself, setting off a sequence of escalating events that unearth a lifetime of simmering resentments… and put the sisters’ lives in jeopardy.
