PLAY SYNOPSIS
Naomi, Viv, and Charlie spend their Friday nights at the mall, but this night is special: there is new “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” merchandise at Hot Topic, and Naomi is determined to get her hands on it. When the best friends discover that thieves have brutally ransacked the Hot Topic, they embark on a mission to save the merchandise. Along the way, they uncover a deeper conspiracy, and evil forces emerge to ensnare the teenagers. Their allegiances to each other are called into question, and when all hope seems lost, Naomi must fight back or risk losing her friends to the mall forever.
​
​THE MALL THE MALL THE MALL is an adventure comedy about a group of teenagers who uncover an evil conspiracy at their local shopping mall and must fight their way – video game style – through Hollister, Hot Topic, Build-A-Bear, and more to save their beloved mall. An unapologetic love letter to nerd culture and food courts, THE MALL THE MALL THE MALL is both a laugh-packed nostalgia fest and an earnest meditation on what it meant to grow up at the dawn of the digital age.

NOTE FROM PLAYWRIGHT
This play is a love letter to my old job and the plates I broke on purpose.
