Thanks to Lemon, the standards of education are being raised once again and because of River, everyone else has to decide whether to rise… or explain why they didn’t.

Casting notes: The play has been designed so that the two "salespeople" are both women, but otherwise, "River" is a gender neutral name, so the six students can truly be any one of any gender. Similarly, the teachers can either be of any gender as they are all written to be "Mr./Mrs". This is a play written for high school theatre students.
