Dive into the world of theatre like never before as the curtain rises on the world premiere of "Thank You, Places" this August. Presented by IndyFringe, this evocative play is set to pull back the curtain on the intricacies of life in the theatre, exploring relationships, ambition, and identity.

As two stage actors prepare for closing night after a 20-year run, they reflect on the ups, downs, and in-betweens of their work. Set in the dressing room of a dinner theatre in Wichita, Kansas, Liz and Bradley have one last chance to reminisce about old times and contemplate an uncertain future.
