My five-piece play inspired by the mass shooting at Virginia Tech in 2007 — which killed 32 people plus the shooter and stood as the nation’s worst mass shooting until the Pulse nightclub shooting in 2016 — has been performed numerous places in 2018 as part of the “Code Red” program of short plays about mass shootings.
Here is a photo from the April 20 staged reading in Roanoke, Virginia, which was held at Virginia Western Community College.
