Cops and Robbers is a one-man play that takes a revolutionary look into the relationship between law enforcement, the media, and the community. 

Centered on an officer involved shooting, writer/performer Jinho “The Piper” Ferreira takes the audience on an emotionally charged ride with unexpected twists and turns.

The Piper seamlessly travels through 17 characters, each with their own convictions, logic, and prejudices. Cops and Robbers takes no prisoners as it challenges the viewer to question all preconceived notions of “right” and “wrong”.

Book including curriculum by Dr. Dawn Williams Ferreira and CD of audio play available onsite.
