As he searches for meaning and belonging, Mara offers a tempting, dangerous “solution.” Supported by a dynamic seven-person ensemble, Benjamin’s journey unfolds, leading him to break free from Mara’s grip and ultimately discover a powerful new way to rise above it all. HIGHER is a compelling exploration of struggle, transformation, and hope.
