Rivalry, a play about the beginning phases of teen violence
Presented by Kerri Mubaarak & Students: We Are One at Caldcleugh Multicultural Arts Center

Rivalry is a play written mostly by teens about the beginning phases of teen violence. We decided to produce this work in response to the shooting death of a local teenager that was said to have been fueled by a rivalry between two neighboring cities. It took us almost a year to the date to write and develop this piece. I was so pleased with the outcome. Great performances by all these actors.”Kerri Mubaarak

"1 hour of stitched-together scenes from a detective, court official & former gang member. Local teenagers conducted the interviews and wrote 'Rivalry' with the help of several adults like Mubaarak." Jeri Rowe, News & Record
