This musical features students learning how to stop a fight inside themselves, and slowly but surely losing the need to fight with another person.  The awareness sticks.

After a presentation at Boston Court Theatre in Pasadena, California, EMPTY HANDS was given funding for a Workshop.  When the pandemic hit, a 5-minute marketing video was created instead.

There are three adult characters – one, the Sensei, is a veteran. He served in war and made this change in this life to deal with PTSD.  There are two more adult roles in the script that don’t appear in the video – one, the mother of one of the teens, and the other is the father of another.  The remaining 8 characters are high school students.

We educate students in math, science, language, history, sports, music and more.

Why not in understanding conflict – which is what prevents peace?
