Synopsis
Ferdinand von Schirach's 'Terror: A Play' confronts a heavy moral dilemma: Do we choose freedom or security? When a hijacked passenger plane is headed towards a stadium holding over 70,000 people, a Lieutenant Colonel makes the split-second decision to shoot it down, saving the stadium crowd but killing all 164 passengers on board. He is subsequently charged with murder, as the law states every life is inviolable. The play unfolds through courtroom debate, where perspectives shift with each testimony. Is he guilty or not guilty? You, the jury, must decide.
