WHO PUT BELLA IN THE WYCH ELM? is a one-act horror dramedy set in 2048 on the banks of Lake Michigan in her wild upper peninsula. Harper, a transmasc med student, returns to the campsite they spent their childhood summers protected in, alongside best friend Olive and her new girlfriend Gray.
Drought, wildfires, and food scarcity have ravaged the rest of the country but the grass at camp remains green, guarded by the gnarled eye of an ancient elm tree. However, when a power threatens to choke out the paradise, the three young queer people must wrestle with themselves and each other to preserve it.
