On today’s podcast, I met with Kash Goins before a rehearsal of the GoKash
OnSTAGE production of 74 Seconds…toJudgement, in residence at Arden Theatre
Company. The Philadelphia based African American theatre company,
established in 2008 by producer Kash Goins, seeks to make space for stories
that speak to our collective state of being. We use our passion to reach
out, sometimes in desperation, to build understanding and connect the
humanity we all share. We seek to help stimulate dialogue which heals and
enlightens. GoKash OnSTAGE presents independent, published and world
premiere theatre productions.

ABOUT 74 SECONDS…TO JUDGEMENT

What is “Justifiable Homicide”? What roles do paranoia, race, and fear play
in a split decision to kill? Should social class, personal histories, or
individual assumptions factor into a months’ long evaluation of justice? Is
there enough space for the application of law in a killing which takes
seconds to commit? Who are we, who decide? How are we to decide?

In the next installment of his justice series, “Seventy IV Seconds… to
judgment”, Kash Goins introduces us to a jury of 6 who have been deadlocked
for over a week. In an attempt to uncover the truth buried in the facts as
presented in the case, the youngest juror who is not much different than a
central figure in the killing, offers a unique tactic. An exercise purposed
to move the jury beyond feelings which are buried beneath the cover of what
they’ve come to accept as their personal truths. To be heard. To listen. To
process the law as instructed.
