You Can Sit with Us

Part of The 2026 Pipeline Festival

Apr 12 - 15, 2026

Fresh off the heels of a traumatic loss and hoping for a fresh start, teenage Asha is uprooted from her West Coast life to be closer to her family home in the Lehigh Valley. Amidst the cavernous hallways of her new high school, Asha meets the enigmatic Ashley: the school’s queen bee and one of the only other Asian Americans in their school district. Bonded by a shared history of loss, Asha and Ashley strike up a complex friendship – but around them, students are disappearing under mysterious circumstances. What was supposed to be a new beginning quickly turns into a nightmare, as Asha must confront demons both real and imagined in her quest for peace – and survival.
