Peacemaker: a Parable Play

By Patrick Rainville Dorn

In the Old West, a lovestruck schoolboy visits a mercantile store to purchase a gun in order to kill his rival and impress a pretty girl. The storekeep's surprisingly eager endorsement of the plan causes the youth to reconsider the consequences of his actions. At approximately seven minutes, this breezy sketch contains deeper themes and a canny perspective on the consequences of violence.
