About
As Easter and Passover draw near, thoughts turn to stories of persecution, liberation, and rebirth. Joshua Crone's award-winning play examines those themes against the background of the 2015 shooting at Umpqua Community College: A school shooter invades the lives of a teenage evangelist, a juvenile delinquent, and a youth pastor with a troubled past, forcing them to ask whether faith is worth dying for, and if not, how to go on living.
