Killadelphia: A New Musical Docudrama
Killadelphia: A new Musical Docudrama
On the streets, a gun used to commit a murder is said to have a body on it. Like a mental imprint, the gun carries with it a trace of the life it's taken. In Philadelphia, the streets have bodies on them, and the city itself carries the weight of that loss. Killadelphia: A New Musical Docudrama combines original, student-written scenes, monologues culled from student-led interviews, and poignant songs from yesterday and today. What emerges is a rich tapestry of private struggle and public outrage. From staggering statistics on gun violence in Philadelphia to stunningly personal anecdotes on the nature of love, loss, and transcending tragedy, Killadelphia seeks not to answer complex problems, but pose thoughtful questions. Every individual has the power to make a choice, and every person feels the irrevocable wake that follows when a shot is fired. In a city called Killadelphia, no is immune to the violence.
