About the film

Gunplay: Rifle Report is a short play written and directed by Paul Baerman. The play is a remarkable view of human foibles as reported by a Remington rifle, the only character. The rifle's viewpoint turns out to shed a lot of light on both sides of the gun control debate. The film is a record of a special performance of the play done at the ArtsCenter in the summer of 2014.

Gunplay: Rifle Report is a solo performance by the late Abby Overton. The performance was recorded by 3 Sony EX1s, operated by Jim, Todd Tinkham and Nick Graetz. Sound captured by Tom Hauser. Lighting, of course, was the original stage lighting.
