KINGSTON, R.I. \u2013 February 9, 2016 \u2014 The 溏心vlog免费B站 Theatre Department announces the opening of \u201ccolumbinus\u201d by the United States Theatre Project.<\/p>\n


\nWritten by Stephen Karam and PJ Paparelli, with dramaturgy by Patricia Hersch, \u201ccolumbinus\u201d examines the realities of adolescent culture by exploring the events surrounding the 1999 shootings at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colo.

\nThis play is a meeting of fact and fiction that weaves excerpts from discussions with parents, survivors and community leaders in Littleton, as well as police evidence, to bring to light the dark recesses of American adolescence. The New York Post said this drama is \u201ca powerful and important piece about the churning rage that\u2019s all too likely to bubble over again one day.\u201d <\/p>\n
