Mike is having a very big day. He’s been holding onto a secret for awhile, and today his secret is totally coming out. It’s also a big day for the country – huge decisions are being made all over, and at the center of it is one family teetering on the brink of…everything. Ten Brave Seconds is a bright and vital new musical, infused with infectious pop melodies and rooted in a big-hearted examination of one day in the life of a kid, a family, and a community stepping bravely from the dark unknown into the daylight together.

BECKY: (Female identifying, 14) Mike’s sister. Against all the odds, she’s become the one thing in her family that is slightly stable. She has processed her grief remarkably, but it’s come at a cost: she is exhausted from being the most mature person in her family while still being 14.
