You always hear about horrifying events on the news but you are able to keep a certain amount of distance but in this powerful piece Dwayne confronts his audience with death and what the officer sees. Its a piece that will not only be heard but experienced and because it is so well constructed I would wager it will have people talking about it as they walk away. I powerful piece for the central actor and expertly put together. The point this piece raises needs to be heard and seen.

I was there for the first performance (actually, I was in it), just days after the 2007 shooting at Virginia Tech. Based on actual circumstances, this short play retains its power and poignancy even a decade later. Highly recommended.

I first encountered this play a month ago and was grateful to include it in a reading of gun reform plays I produced. I can only imagine the impact this heart-wrenching monologue play would have with a full production. A snapshot, one facet of the impact of gun violence. It has stayed with me since the moment I read it; it will stay with you, too.
