Composer Larry Daggett tackles the other disease ravaging our country ... Gun Violence in Schools with his new musical, Bullet Points - the musical. Two showings: June 10 @ 7:00 p.m. & June 11 @ 2:00 p.m. at the Theatre Row Theatre, as part of the Create Theater New Works Festival, 410 West 42nd Street, NYC.
This dark comedy focuses on Sarah, a Florida high school teacher who returns to work on the same day as a school shooting which sends her life spinning in wildly unpredictable directions - both tragic and comic.
"The theme of the show concerns the "us versus them" mentality that cuts our country in half," says acclaimed composer Larry Daggett, "It's about learning to listen to people on the opposite side of an issue even ifthey disagree with your point of view."
Bullet Points tells the story of one woman's attempt to navigate her thoughts and feelings on both sides of the gun control issue - with the hope that this subject will resonate long enough in the American consciousness that both sides of the debate might begin to find a path toward ending gun violence in schools.
A cast of Broadway veterans as well as electrifyingly talented young people is currently being assembled to bring to life this new musical hoping to enlighten the theater-going audience to a heart-breaking issue that simply won't go away.
Larry Daggett has worked on & off Broadway, at New York City Opera, and at over 30 of the country's major regional theatres.

He is CEO of New Tune Entertainment, LLC, a company built for the development and production of new musicals on stage as well as on film.
