Raw emotion and a story that plays out in real life over and over again are the focus of this play. Its urgency and sense of danger elevate it beyond a simple message.

Stunning, frightening, and a necessary read for those of us who love tough questions and no easy answers. Michael Hagins invokes the sense that centuries have led up to this moment. Please add A Shot Rang Out to your list.

A brilliant read. Unwaveringly captures all the possible points of view about police shootings and the racial tensions that continue today. Leaves the reader shaken and thoroughly unnerved, as all the best drama should.
