In 2016, Utah State University acting student Brendon Henderson decided to challenge himself by finding a way to put on Slipping by Daniel Talbott. On a mission to cast his fellow students who weren't cast in the school's main season, he assembled a group of dedicated students to spend countless late nights rehearsing. The challenging material was deemed too risque by the school, so the Restless Observers were left to their own devices to produce it. They raised enough money on Indiegogo for the play rights and a handful of costumes and props, all thanks to the community of theater-lovers in Logan, Utah.
