Winter guard is NOT color guard.

Forget the football, forget the pom poms.

In a small town in Pennsylvania, a high school winter guard team attempts to choreograph a routine on the topic of global warming.

A play about catching flags, catching each other, and realizing the grown-ups aren’t going to save you.
