Art imitates life, but not always without controversy.
Many people in the Roseburg area objected when Philadelphia playwright Ginger Dayle wrote and staged a play about the mass shooting last year at Umpqua Community College called simply "Roseburg."
The shooting is just part of the story; the other part is a Roseburg appearance by Bobby Kennedy just the day before he lost the Oregon primary in 1968. Kennedy himself was murdered a few weeks later. Ginger Dayle explores her motivations in writing "Roseburg" in a visit to The Exchange.
