Confession: Kafka in High School

by Bobby Keniston

Absurdist Comedy ~ Drama / Model student Connor K. wakes up one morning to find himself in his high school's conference room, being interrogated by the principal. How he got there, Connor doesn't know, but the principal is insistent that the only way out of the room is for Connor to confess to a crime that he couldn't have committed -- in fact, he doesn't even know what he is being accused of! Only ever meaning to be a good student, he learns that sometimes you have to speak up for yourself against injustice. This chilling adaptation of The Trial brings the absurdism and existentialism of Kafka to high school with keen insight and dark humor. ( 4 f, 5 m)
