A PRODUCTION FROM RIDING LIGHTS YOUTH THEATRE

HEADSTRONG

by April de Angelis

Two young women, thrown together on a ship around the world - one a spoiled heiress, the other her servant - but both equally headstrong.

With months at sea ahead of them, Lila Mae encounters a doctor who makes a surprising diagnosis, and prescribes an even more surprising cure. Soon it’s hard to tell who’s in control and who’s being controlled.

When Rose decides that her mistress’s medicine is worse than her illness, she knows she needs a truly incendiary plan to get them both free...
