These plays present a culminating experience for our 8th graders in their exploration on the theme of how power structures control information. The students were inspired by:

The Arts Immersion Institute at Central Square Theatre "Inherit the Wind".This unit required students to look at the relationship between new information and stablished power structures from scientific, historical, literary, and theatrical perspectives, using Lawrence & Lees "Inherit the Wind" as an anchor work. Students worked in conjuction with Cambridge's Page to Stage Young Playwright's Program and demonstrated mastery of the topic through the writing of short plays that examined the interplay between power structures and control of informationin modern times.
