Detention Therapy
A One-Act Based on True Events
In October of 1998, Greg Witman was brutally murdered shortly after returning home from school. The controversy surrounding who did it didn't compare to the confusion and grief that was thrust upon the small rural community. Detention Therapy is set in after-school detention, where five students meet for channeling their pain into uncharacteristic actions.
