Objectively/Reasonable: A Community Response to the Shooting of Tamir Rice,
11/22/14 originally ran from August 18 through September 4, 2016, at the
Creative Space at Waterloo Arts. Directed by Terrence Spivey, the play was
praised by Cool Cleveland as “a work that should travel to theaters all
over the country…a catharsis” and by Broadway World as “a must-see
experience for anyone interested in the real world around them.”
Objectively/Reasonable was written by an ensemble of playwrights—Mike
Geither, Tom Hayes, Lisa Langford, Michael Oatman, and David Todd—and
conceived/edited by Todd. Additional information on the play is available
at http://playwrightslocal.org/objectively-reasonable/.
