BGHS Fall Play: On Stars Not Falling by Scott Shallenbarger
NOTICE: On Stars Not Falling explores topics including grief, self-harm & suicide, which may be challenging to sensitive viewers. The performance includes mature language. Viewer discretion is advised.
ABOUT THE PLAY:
On Stars Not Falling is a full-length dramatic play with comedic elements. It tells the story of college friends who dropped out of school following a shared, traumatic experience. Five months later, they gather for a birthday party on the rooftop of a Chicago three-flat. An unexpected guest who transforms their lives forever interrupts the celebration. This 90-minute play empowers those who feel small; offers faith to those who feel lost; and, ultimately, awakens the courage in us all to stand-up, move forward, and claim our own happiness. On Stars Not Falling has enjoyed productions in professional theaters, college theaters, and high school theaters throughout the nation. The play has often been called "life-changing."
SUICIDE PREVENTION: If you or someone you love is at risk for suicide or other self-injury, please seek help. During school hours, BGHS students may access supports by visiting Student Services. In an immediate emergency, call 911.
