Tate High School Remembers 9/11 With ‘110 Stories’

September 10, 2015

The Tate High School Drama Department will present the drama “110 Stories” Thursday through Sunday.
110 Stories captures the grief and resilience of New York City in the wake of the September 11 attacks through the words of those who experienced it directly–not only firefighters and police, but iron workers, chaplains, K-+9 handlers, nurses, photojournalists, and the homeless who witnessed the horrific events and also saved lives that day.

Together these first-person testimonials reveal the hope, humor, and compassion that emerged in the midst of this tragedy.  Memorializing September 11 by sharing the stories no one saw on the news, the play is a powerful and humanizing
account of New York City’s darkest day.

Performances are 7 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and 2:30 p.m. Sunday in Tate High School Cafetorium.  Tickets are $7 at the door, $5 in advance. Admission is free for law enforcement, firefighters and EMTs with identification or in uniform.

    Good for this Drama Dept and the students. We should remember. Too many things have been forgotten that should be remembered. They all fade and the same mistakes are made over and over again. Some do not even believe there was a Holocaust.
