Student directed play.
Three days before his reelection, in the wake of a school shooting, Republican senator Charles Whitmore makes a distasteful comment about God that gets leaked on Twitter. He begins to question his stance on guns and Christianity. This play looks at how religion influences politics and how politics has become a religion.
CONTENT ADVISORY: Please note that this play includes the death of a character, themes of grief and loss, heavy dialogue about gun violence, and the sound effect of a firing gun.
