 A Hole in My Heart Production Fundraiser
Feb 1 all-day
Online w/ Hendersonville Community Theatre

A Hole In My Heart Logo

Our friends at Hendersonville Community Theatre will be streaming A Hole in My Heart, an original production capturing the immeasurable grief of gun violence survivors, from February 1st through the 7th to mark National Gun Violence Survivors Week. Written by Henderson County residents Doreen Blue and Eileen Douglas, the moving series of diverse monologues is performed by local community theater actors and gun safety activists. This video contains disturbing content that may be too intense for some viewers. Viewer discretion is advised.

All donations to view this drama will go to the Riley Howell Foundation Fund, an organization supporting families affected by gun violence. The foundation was formed by the family of Riley Howell, a UNC-Charlotte student who was shot and killed in April, 2019 trying to save his classmates from an armed attacker.

This video contains disturbing content which may be too intense for some viewers. Viewer discretion is advised.

All characters appearing in this work are fictitious. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental
