After surviving a deadly shooting at her high school, Caitlin Gabriel struggles to tell her story to her parents, to the authorities and to anyone who will listen. But other narratives gain purchase in the media and paint her in a different light. Written by renowned screenwriter Scott Z. Burns, this bold and chilling play examines our relationships with the truths and the lies that claim to heal us.
