Award-winning playwright, Mike Lew's Bike America is a wildly theatrical picaresque journey that crams the entire continent onto one stage.

The play pedals the audience along a cross-country bike trip from Boston to California, with stops in big cities and small towns along the way. Heroine Penny is looking to bring more meaning into her life, so she drops her clingy boyfriend in Beantown and takes off for Santa Barbara.

Along the way she befriends a colorful crew of bikers and develops insights on our cultural obsession with happiness. Artistic Director Emily Rankin will direct.
