Thank You for Shopping!

Overview

When Maeve’s father passes away and she inherits the family grocery store, her future feels uncertain, especially when her ex-best friend Harper comes back to town. Amidst the aisles of food, employees, family, and friends, a series of vignettes introduces us to the community as they navigate love, loss, forgiveness, and the highs and lows of life during one of the most simple and consistent parts of it: grocery shopping. Thank You for Shopping is a play about the importance of searching for what you want in life – and appreciating what you already have along the way.
