“ENOUGH! Plays to End Gun Violence” at Bridge Street Theatre in Catskill

Bridge Street Theatre will host a one-night-only event on Monday, October 6 at 7:00pm: “ENOUGH! Plays to End Gun Violence.” Part of a nationwide initiative spanning more than 48 communities, the evening features six new short plays written by teens, performed by local teen actors from Catskill and the greater Hudson Valley. These pieces confront the many angles of gun violence — from schools to neighborhoods to families — and give audiences the chance to hear directly from the youth most affected.

Chosen from 127 submissions by a distinguished panel that included Jason Reynolds, Gabby Giffords, and nationally recognized dramatists, the winning plays cut to the heart of what it means to grow up in America today. The Bridge Street Theatre reading will be co-directed by Timothy Dakin-Dunn, BST’s Assistant Artistic Director, alongside Michelle Storrs and Marcus McGregor, two of Catskill’s most dedicated champions of youth arts. Following the performance, audiences are invited to stay for a community talk-back.

Tickets are just $10 for Adults and $5 for Students. Seating is first-come, first-served. Bridge Street Theatre is located at 44 West Bridge Street, Catskill, NY. Full details: bridgest.org/enough-plays-to-end-gun-violence
