A powerful and emotional exploration of public and private acts of violence…
Routes is a riveting one man play that delves into the impact of violence
through the eyes of Tom, a fifteen year old boy living in Millwoods.
Tom escapes violence at home by riding his local bus until closing.
As he journeys along the route of his nine previous homes, we discover
the ties that connect the violence at home to acts of bullying between
students at his school and the killing of a man by four youth on this very
route. Starring Joshua Beaudry.
Curriculum Ties: CALM: wellbeing and respect, conflict resolution, relationships, making change; Health and Life Skills: wellness choices, safety and responsibility, relationship choices. Family violence, bullying, life strategies, support.
