THIS THING OF OURS by Caridad Svich. A text for live performance. In THIS THING OF OURS, an act of violence struck our city. This has happened before. We say we will put our lives back together.

In our theaters of memory, in our songs of transcendence, perhaps we will find peace. THIS THING OF OURS was first seen at Repertory Theatre of St. Louis' Ignite Festival of New Work.
