A diverse group of young people find themselves brought together by a shooting after a concert. While they are strangers to one another, they must find ways to put aside their initial reactions and understand each other’s backgrounds, talents and opinions. Along the way, a chorus of reason amplifies and comments on the characters’ dilemmas. Poetry, dance and music fuse together to form a play that speaks to the challenges, hopes and dreams of youth.
THE FUSE: a chain reaction is an original play created by young artists at San Francisco University High School.
