A thoughtful and evocative coming-of-age drama, THE WISE KIDS takes place in the transitional space between high school and college. Set in and around a Charleston, SC Baptist church, weaving through this ensemble piece are three main characters - Brea, an introspective pastor's daughter experiencing debilitating doubt; the hyperactive Laura, Brea's best friend and a devout believer; and Tim, the open-hearted son of a single father, confronting his homosexuality for the first time. Tensions and buried feelings abound as Brea, Laura and Tim attempt to hang onto what they have while yearning to break free.
