The story of Snitchland is based on hundreds of stories of whistleblowers in Richland – a small town in Eastern Washington State – deemed “the most toxic place in the Western Hemisphere”. It tells the story of a family who face extreme tragedy after moving to a town plagued by decades of wrongdoing – misfortune, extreme health concerns, unsafe conditions, and death. A ghost story, a moving family drama and love story, and a suspenseful and cautionary tale about what can happen when one – or many – tries to shed light on a dangerous aspect of one’s community – and bad shit happens.
Snitchland – the sequel to Tim Mulligan’s Witchland – is a tense and thrilling new play, with many of the same immersive elements that made Witchland such a visceral experience. Based on a real place, and real events, it will move you, thrill you, keep you on the edge of your seat, and stand out as a singularly unique theater-going experience.
