Synopsis

#MATTER is a two hander about former high school friends debating matters of life and race. After a feud on social media, Cole and Kim sit down to discuss the difference in saying "all lives matter" versus "black lives matter", and end up talking about a whole lot more.

Editor's Note: The actors speak to us---sometimes in the midst of a scene. They should also say the words in bold---who gets assigned what may be determined by director and ensemble.
