The 2026-2027 Winter One Act Production:
Advice for Astronauts
By Walt McGough
The entire community gathers to view the highly anticipated shuttle launch, but the abrupt disappearance of an astronaut throws the event and the surrounding relationships into disarray. A surreal and comedic take on impending space travel, the play tackles how humanity deals with the unknown. Eventually, the chaos subsides and the characters are forced to stop arguing, reconcile their differences, and move forward.
