Clippings

Eight high school students share stories from newspaper articles they were assigned to clip. Memories are triggered and personal values and biases as well as intensely private issues (sexual harassment, parental abuse, abortion, teen pregnancy, suicide, homosexuality, drugs, sibling relationships and guilt) surface. Mimes dramatize the dilemmas teenagers face as they struggle with the voices of their hearts, minds and souls. Love, acceptance and forgiveness are offered as values that make life worth living.
