It’s all your fault, tyler price!
A musical within a musical, It’s All Your Fault, Tyler Price! is about a middle school student, Jackson, who beats up his bully, Tyler Price, for making fun of his little sister—a fellow student living with epilepsy and related learning challenges. When Jackson’s punishment is to address the entire school, he uses the opportunity to stage a musical explaining the dynamics of his family. What starts awkwardly soon transforms into honest discussions about personal failings and shared humanities, giving the entire audience a new understanding of each other.
Written and created by Ben Decter, It’s All Your Fault, Tyler Price! puts a spotlight on how families and community can better understand what those living with epilepsy and those around them experience.
