The Flushed:
The play is about the kids Rose and Lamar who live in Kensal House. Lemar is kicking her football out in the hallway and hits the football through a window while Rose is watching with her bunny Carrot. Rose tells Lemar she should known not to kick the ball inside of Kensal House. As revenge, Lemar takes Carrot out of Rose’s hands and throw her into the toilet inside of their flat. By an accident the toilets flush and Carrot disappears down the toilet.
As Rose goes on missing Carrot, she gets an idea to fish for Carrot through the toilet while Lemar is watching. Something bites the line but it’s too strong to reel in, so they get dragged down the toilet themselves and down into the Down Low. What happens down there? Will they get Carrot back?
