★ WORLD PREMIERE ★
By Hilary Bettis
Directed by May Adrales
This is a true story. It’s the 90s in rural Falcon, Colorado. Six teenage girls on the FFA horse judging team are determined to make it to nationals come hell or high water. But to do that, they must grapple with jealousy, rivalries, sex, Jesus, AOL chat rooms, impossible expectations, and rumors of a serial killer. Hilary Bettis’s falcon girls is an achingly funny and brutally honest coming of age memoir–and a love letter to the girls she grew up with and the horses who saved their lives.
Development and production support for falcon girls is provided by Yale’s Binger Center for New Theatre and is a recipient of an Edgerton Foundation New Play Award.
