New York Theater: Three mass shootings in a single week — in Gilroy, California last Sunday leaving three dead; in El Paso,Texas leaving at least 20 dead yesterday: in Dayton, Ohio, leaving at least nine dead this morning — provoke, once again, many questions.
Some of the questions are specific to theater artists and theatergoers. It was in Dayton two years ago that the Human Race Theatre mounted the first full production of a play called “26 Pebbles,” about a previous mass shooting — the 2012 killings of 26 people, including 20 six and seven-year-olds, at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.
