Welcome to America the Beautiful Theme Park.

America the Beautiful: families come here to vacation; college students come here to get work credit and escape exams for a semester; middle-aged adults come here to soak up the nostalgia of their childhood trips. Most people go home; some people stay.

They all have reasons for being here. Tabby, because America the Beautiful’s themed world offers the perfection her evangelical upbringing told her wasn’t possible in this sinful world. Antonia, because it’s the first place where her hungry childhood feels like ancient history. Nick, because creating his own content could make him an Internet star. Nate, because it’s the only culture where he’s ever felt he belonged. And Martin, because he’s holding onto the memories of what he had here once.

With a shared mythology their only link, the employees and fans of America the Beautiful find their lives tangle in unexpected ways–proving that a theme park isn’t just for kids…and it can be a very adult place.
