On the morning of September 6, 2015, Stacy gets up and proceeds like any other morning. But unfortunately, as her day progresses, she finds out that there has been a shooting at her son’s middle school. As she watches the television frantic and frozen, she realizes that she must get to her son’s school as soon as possible. Upon arrival she stands behind the barricades with all the rest of the parents holding pictures of their children in hand, waiting to hear a word from the authorities. As time passes the all-clear signal is given and children begin to exit the school. Stacy watches as parents around her are reunited with her children. She asked one of the students if they know her son and the mother replies “He’s shooter.” Surrounded by a mob of angry parents without the ability to defend herself Stacy is brutally attacked. The one thing that she holds onto is the only thing that she has, a school picture of her son Andrew. She finally realizes what it was that took her son to do what he did, but by this time it is too late, for both. This performance is a mature and very real look into the horror associated with being a parent amid a crisis and the realization that humanity is not always present and not always on our side.
