A momentary act of violence caught on camera destroys the lives of three people. Now they need to tell us their version of how it really went down. Jordan is a quiet, nerdy, almost eighth-grade graduate. Leela, bubbling and following her passion, has just opened her own clothing boutique near Jordan’s school. And Daniel is an awkwardly sweet police officer on foot patrol in the neighborhood. The three of them lead us through their lives, dreams and the snap decisions that led them to that fateful moment.
This was a fantastic one act for my student directors to work on. Plenty of small scenes and monologues also make it great for student actors. We also enjoyed the overall themes of the play and loved making our audience think long after the lights went up.
“The [audience] held their breath as the backstory of the incident recorded on video unfolded before their eyes.” —Broadway World
“Powerful play.” —Palm Beach Dramaworks
“[Swagger] presents topics that either challenge or affirm young people’s beliefs, and engages them to think critically about making informed decisions.” —Palm Beach Dramaworks
