It is bold, unflinching, and designed to spark conversation long after the lights go down.  Get your free tickets here —but seats are limited. Co-produced by Southwestern University in collaboration with Sewanee’s Office of Community Building and Connections and Troy University, this is a moment for our campus to come together—to witness, to reflect, and to engage.
