The Gun Show uses a single actor, a box of props, and five heartwarming, funny, and tragic true stories about guns in playwright E.M. Lewis's life to encourage us to acknowledge each other's positions and share our own feelings about the presence of guns in all of our lives.
Are guns fun or terrifying? Tools or weapons? Safe or deadly? Necessary or useless?
Without choosing sides, The Gun Show urges us to have a conversation - instead of an argument - about how the subject of guns has become one of the most divisive and complicated issues in America today.
The only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy telling stories about guns.
