The Graveyard Shift
October 9-18, 2026
The Graveyard Shift By Chelsea Sutton
It’s Marley’s first graveyard shift at the local 24-hour Sparky’s Burger Barn and she is struggling to build the perfect burger, grasping at the last vestiges of meaning in her life, and really killing the vibe for her slacker co-worker Dev. But when a rival fast-food chain throws a chocolate shake in her face from the drive thru window, it kicks off a quickly escalating prank war that distracts Dev and Marley from the real crime happening under their noses. The Graveyard Shift is a comedy grounded in the realities and absurdities of small town, minimum wage life. A fast food job is no joke – it’s war.
