This broadcast production of May 4th Voices presents David Hassler’s play with an all-������ student cast directed by Katherine Burke. The play is composed of first-person narratives about the May 4, 1970, tragedy, taken from the ������ Shootings Oral History Project. Narrator Maj Ragain’s prose poem, “May 4, 1970 / A Memory,” provides structure to the drama. These authentic personal stories capture the trauma, confusion and fear experienced by people who witnessed or were involved with the shootings.  

In tandem with the video production’s premiere, The ������ Press will release the book May 4th Voices: ������, 1970: A Play and a companion teacher’s resource book. The DVD of the film will be available in June from The ������ Press.
