Forget Harvard, it's all about Kindergarden!
Set in the admissions department of the fictional but all too realistic Edgely Prep, Application Pending introduces us to the high-stakes world of Manhattan parents, who will stop at nothing to make sure their child gets a place- or else...
What is the show about?
This witty one woman show focuses on Christine Evans, played with marvellous zeal by Christina Bianco, a school admissions officer who is thrust onto the battlefield on application day by the fallout of a salacious scandal. What follows is a gruelling day interacting with parents who are fully ready to win this war, having hired tutors, petitioned politicians and celebrities for recommendations and of course, believe that their child is especially gifted!
In addition to Christine, Bianco also takes on multiple characters, everyone from irate parents to George Clooney in this wonderfully smart satire.
