Convection Productions Presents the Toronto Premiere of
COMMENCEMENT
by Clay McLeod Chapman

One actor plays three women drawn together in the grim aftermath of a high school shooting the mother of the shooter, one of the shooter's victims, and the mother of that victim. It is a deep exploration of the lives of three women that, according to Edmonton's SEE Magazine,"will leave you wringing your hands in helpless empathy." A story of loss, hope and forgiveness that will stay with you long after the performance is over.
