Shot!

What is the price of a bullet? North Philadelphians may know all too well. Rioting in 1964 inadvertently triggers a fatal bullet, ripping a hole in history, echoing though the streets of our city, cutting down generations of those who stand, both innocent and guilty, in its terrible, destructive path. From the glory days of a once-thriving and prosperous integrated neighborhood to the ruined apocalyptic hood of today; a poetic and personal theatrical foray into the historic life, death and future resurrection of North Philadelphia. Temple Theaters presents the world premiere of an unprecedented original theater event, SHOT!, a provocative multimedia docudrama, is made possible by a generous Temple University Provosts Seed Grant.
