A Bad Influence – a Rude Fusion presentation

By chance, he stumbles upon an old friend at an AA meeting. June—the friend—is so dismayed by her recovery process, in particular the unwanted advances of her sponsor Donovan, that George manages to sweep her off her feet and straight into a bender.About the Artists
While having no official organization, the production team of A Bad Influence is built up of a group of passionate artists who believe in and love the story enough to come together and bring it to life. Most worked on this project once before in the fall of 2024, but we are ecstatic to grow our team and unlayer ideas and conversations we didn’t have before.About Rude Fusion
