Second Stage Theatre (Los Angeles, CA)

Satire, mystery and tragicomedy converge in The Why, a chillingly relevant tale of a teenager named Robert who is charged with murdering three of his classmates in a school shooting. A winner in Blank Theatre Company’s annual Young Playwrights Festival, this clever new drama from Victor Kaufold splices hard-hitting scenes between Robert and his social worker with unsettlingly spot-on depictions of the modern media’s over-the-top tabloid-like coverage of the event. The results are both funny and provocative, making you laugh then forcing you to question why you did.
