Columbinus, a play sparked by the April 1999 massacre at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colo., is a meeting of fact and fiction that illuminates the realities of adolescent culture by exploring the events surrounding the shootings. The play weaves together excerpts from discussions with parents, survivors, and community leaders in Littleton, as well as police evidence, to bring to light the dark recesses of American adolescence.

Co-written by Scranton native and Tony-Award-winning Playwright Stephen Karam, this one-night-only stage reading will feature a mix of regional talent and anti-violence activists as its ensemble.

Wednesday, October 2nd at 7:00 pm

Written by Stephen Karam and PJ Paparelli, Produced by Scranton Fringe with a special arrangement with THE DRAMATIC PUBLISHING COMPANY of Woodstock, Illinois.
