Sin-Eaters

Edinburgh 2026

The St Anne's County Debutante Class of 2000 has been struck with a plague of lice – maybe because God hates them, maybe because of what happened last summer to Emma. They decide to revive the ancient ritual of sin-eating to cleanse them of their misdeeds before their presentation to society. Instead they uncover secrets about each other and themselves that will rock the foundation of their friendships forever. This dark comedy explores guilt, grief and girlhood in the vicious world of country club debutantes.
