columbinus examines the Columbine school shooting and brings new meaning to the catch phrase "No child left behind." Set, at first, in a fictional high school in American suburbia, the action moves to Littleton, Colorado in the days leading up to and including the shootings on April 20, 1999.

Having conducted interviews with teenagers across the country and taken survivor accounts and police transcripts, the writers have created a haunting piece of theatre.  The moral, in a sense, is not that the Columbine High massacre could have been prevented, but that we should be grateful, in a culture as sprawling and violence-ridden as ours, that it does not happen every day.

Directed by Brad Baker.  October 16-21, 2007.  Black Box Theatre.  A Southwest Regional Premiere!
