Bang! Bang! You're Dead or... what I learned from watching television by Tim Kelly
The original text
The full title of the play is Bang! Bang! You're Dead or... What I learned from watching television and it is set at the taping of a bizarre TV game show, where the boyish host, Billy the Kid, guides two teams of contestants through a maze of facts and opinions. Prizes include such oddities as a trip to Boot Hill to view the tombstones and a coroner’s pass to the next autopsy on a teenage handgun victim. The strange proceedings are stopped by a disgruntled viewer who decides the subject matter is much too serious for fun and games. What will Billy do? There’s an unexpected twist. The obvious message — handguns can kill — is dealt with in clever fashion.
