THE AMISH PROJECT
 

THE AMISH PROJECT is a fictionalized account of the aftermath of a true story. When a deranged gunman enters an Amish School in a small Pennsylvania town and shoots 10 Amish schoolgirls, the non-Amish community is horrified and turns against the gunman’s widowed wife and family. But the Amish, who had lost children in the incident, teach the community—and us—what it is to love, forgive, and heal by taking her and her sons under their protective wings.

ABOUT THE PLAYWRIGHT:

Jessica Dickey, a native of Pennsylvania, began her research on Amish culture in order to write her play The Amish Project, which was praised by audiences and critics alike during its Off-Broadway run at the prestigious Rattlestick Playwrights Theater in New York City. The Amish Project is a fictional exploration of the tragic events of the Nickel Mines shooting, when the local milkman walked into an Amish schoolhouse and shot all the girls and then himself. The Amish responded to this crime by forgiving the gunman and embracing his family as fellow victims. Honoring the redemptive aspects of this incredible story, The Amish Project is published by Samuel French, continues to be produced all over America and the world, and was listed by nytheatre.com as a play that should have been nominated for the Pulitzer. The Amish Project won the CAPPIE Award for Best Play.
