Temple University's theater program has received a big honor: The original drama SHOT! is one of three productions chosen to be performed at the Kennedy Center in Washington. SHOT!—by Temple theater professors Kimmika Williams-Witherspoon and Douglas C. Wager and former Temple professor Eugene Martin—is a fact-based drama about the decline of North Philly, based on oral histories of North Philadelphia residents. It was chosen from 53 plays and musicals performed in colleges around the country, and judged in the Kennedy Center American College Theater Festival.
