Beck wants to be the world’s next great reporter – if she can just survive her final senior project.

As this unlikely friendship grows, Beck follows Avery deeper and deeper into the trials, reporting on Avery’s pursuit of victory to a growing audience. Together, the pair must navigate the complicated mythology of school sports and the very real weight of everyone else’s
expectations.
A story full of heart, swagger, and mythic spectacle, ‘HER-cules: The Twelve Trials & the Story I Told’ is about the pursuit of excellence – what it costs and how far we’ll go to be the best.
This engaging play is fun for the whole family, and can be enjoyed by patrons of all ages. the whole family!
