Wally World is one of six virtual productions on the Steppenwolf NOW virtual stage. But can hard truths from her past ruin everything she's ever worked for? Wally World is a festive, poignant examination of finding magic in the mundane as 10 employees do everything they can to find purpose in a place that has never seen purpose in them. Their manager Andy is doing everything in her power to keep her store in line and her employees in check. On the one day of the year the mega-department superstore is supposed to close its doors, secrets come to life that may destroy more than their holiday cheer.

It's Christmas Eve and a group of Wally World employees are about to lose it.
