ABOUT THIS SHOW

In the struggling Rust Belt city of Reading, Pennsylvania, a bar becomes a battleground for race, class, family and friendship. Cynthia, Tracey, and Jessie are a group of friends with a shared history working together on the factory line. But as economic upheaval and picket lines begin to strike their lives, they find themselves pitted against each other in a desperate fight to protect their livelihood and stay afloat. Mature audiences only.
