"Bang, Bang You're Dead" is a gripping one-act drama examining and reliving school shootings like Paducah, Jonesboro, and Springfield. Josh, the angry, confused school shooter is revisited by the classmates he killed, who demand answers to why he killed them. Problems throughout our society are examined as the kids force Josh to examine the gravity and far-reaching consequences of his horrific actions.
