The Beautiful Dark

By Erik Gernand

Directed by Suzan Kurry

Jacob has been expelled from college, but he won’t say why – until an ex-girlfriend reveals his dark and terrible secret: Jacob has written a play… about a mass school shooting. His divorced parents disagree on how to handle the situation, and his adoring younger brother simply can’t believe his idol could ever do anything wrong. A former teacher joins in the emotional conversation: What can we do to help Jacob? Does he even NEED our help?
