DON'T MISS IT!!
WOMEN SPEAK: IRAQ - This new work raises many questions about women?s roles
in wartime: What is a woman?s unique perspective on patriotism? What does
it mean to a soldier to follow her officer?s command? Where do US women and
Iraqi women?s experiences intersect, and what do they have to learn from one
another? How does a woman?s unique physiology and psychology affect her
during wartime?
This dynamic one-woman show, starring Shannon Woolley, is based on
interviews with a wide spectrum of women speaking about their experiences
with the current war in Iraq, such as military women, active-duty sergeants
in both The Air Force and The National Guard, Iraqi women, anti-war
activists, and US women who are stateside with loved ones serving abroad.
With direction by Kelly McNerney, Woolley moves smoothly from character to
character, providing women on many sides of the Iraq debate a chance to
speak their truths, and offering the audience a lens through which to view a
variety of diverse perspectives. This groundbreaking show is not to be
missed!
