Aeneas Hemphill turns the "Our Town" style quaint-American-town play on its head by examining a sadly very American problem: a mass shooting in a high school. Black Hollow examines the deep roots of violence in a community, and the way that violence incubates in our relationships and in our institutions. Furthermore, this play asks what's next? What hope, what path can we find forward? This is a timely play for a large cast - perfect for starting conversations.
