The C.M. Russell High School Drama Department will present “26 Pebbles” later this week.

26 Pebbles was written by Eric Ulloa, an actor and writer, who wanted to explore how the people of Newtown, Connecticut could attempt to move on from the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting that took the lives of 20 children and six adults.

Five months after the tragedy, Ulloa went to Newtown and interviewed 60 different people.

During the play, each CMR actor plays the different roles of those 60 people, with their words and feelings telling multiple sides of the story from the tragic day.

The play takes place Thursday, March 28 through Saturday, March 30 at 7:30 p.m. in the Bill Williamson Hall Auditorium at CMR.

Tickets cost $6 for students and senior citizens and $8 for general admission. Seating is limited.

You can call 268-6117 for more information.
