Flashpoint
916 G St NW Washington

US Premiere. In this tense, one-act, Canadian play, an unstable high-school student confronts a pacifistic guidence councelor in her claustrophobic office at the school. During their increasingly heated conversation a gun is produced, and their encounter becomes a battle of wills. Will "justifiable" violence or passive resistance win the day? Who will survive?

Washington Post - Somewhat Recommended

"...“Rage” shares a number of concerns with Johnna Adams’s 2012 “Gidion’s Knot,” another taut, concept-rich two-hander set in an angst-burdened schoolroom. Adams’s play fuses ideas with solid and even surprising characterizations. By contrast, Riml hasn’t fleshed Laura and Raymond out too much beyond their situations and worldviews. As a result, “Rage” sometimes feels like a thought experiment shoehorned into the limelight."

"...Michele Riml’s Rage made its US premiere this week at Flashpoint’s Mead Theatre Lab. A production of Ambassador Theater, directed by Joe Banno, Rage explores the dynamics of adolescent rage from a Canadian perspective."
