Shocked
Stanley Milgram wanted to put Obedience to the test. What he discovered shocked the world. What he learned might save it.
Set in postwar America, SHOCKED follows famed social psychologist Stanley Milgram, who, inspired by the Eichmann Trial, creates his infamous Obedience to Authority experiments, in which sixty-five percent of the participants give what they believe are deadly shocks to a stranger, simply because they are told to do so by an authority figure. The controversial results cost Milgram both professional security and personal peace of mind - but this story is about more than one man: it is about how entire societies are led astray.
SHOCKED is currently in development, ready for a reading or workshop, and ultimately looking for a home Off-Broadway or in a Regional Theatre.
