Directed by TJ Dawe
In the fall of 2003 the largest supermarket strike in history locked out over 70,000 Los Angeles grocery workers. Broke, discouraged, and unable to find acting work, Kahlil finds himself crossing picket lines during the strike to stock shelves on midnight shift at an Albertsons for less than minimum wage. His coworkers—hardened criminals and ex-cons from a local halfway house—expose Kahlil to transformative but hard truths about incarceration, poverty, and social change.

Hosted by Monster Theatre and co-presented by the Fringe, Theatre Under the Gun is one of the most epic, exciting, surprising, and electric theatre events of the season.
