ASU Black Theatre Organization presents "Pipeline" by Dominique Morisseau. Directed by Crestcencia Ortiz-Barnett.

"Pipeline" takes a deep look into the American educational system for underprivileged students. Nya is an inner-city high school teacher whose son, Omari, is educated at a private boarding school. She is desperate to give him opportunities that her students will never see, and she is determined to fight for his future. The title of the play refers directly to the U.S. school-to-prison pipeline, where underprivileged and disadvantaged students are funneled out of public education and into juvenile and criminal justice systems.
