Ain't It a Shame - Melody Dean Dimick - Bog

? Ain't It a Shame is a little about school violence, but mostly about fitting in when you feel different. This eclectic play of multicultural monologues gives voice to students and their English teacher in a small Mountain Valley town. The angst, heartbreak, loneliness, and dreams of the high school seniors are spotlighted literally and figuratively, thus creating a microcosm of today's high schools. In the days following the coronavirus pandemic, the production of this play will provide teenagers, their parents, and their teachers with an avenue for discussing what it means to come of age in twenty-first-century America
