REB + VoDKa + ME

Full-length musical.
8 women, 4 men.


September 11, 2014 would have been Columbine High School shooter Dylan Klebold’s 33rd birthday and the Tumblr community of his fans, known as Columbiners, spent the day thinking of him. The mourning was interrupted when Chardon High School shooter T.J. Lane escaped from prison that evening, throwing the true crime community into a frenzy. REB+VoDKa+ME follows a girl through the events of that day, her own eighteenth birthday, exploring the quest for community and understanding of the misunderstood.

Winner of the 2018 Discovery Grant from Opera America, sponsored by the Virginia B Toulmin Foundation.  REB+VoDKa+ME was created with director Benjamin Kamine in the 2015-2016 Civilians’ R&D Group and the Musical Theatre Factory's writers group, and further developed at the 2016 Johnny Mercer Colony at Goodspeed Musicals and the 2017 Yale Institute for Music Theatre.
