The 9/11 Project: A Musical Play in Three Acts by D. A. Smith - by Dennis Smith
Where were you...
...on September 11, 2001?
...when they caught Saddam Hussein?
...when Barack Obama won the Presidential Election?
...when you heard bin Laden was killed?
In this thrilling new play script, the questions of interviewer August Estelle Anderson invite veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan to relate vibrant stories that will make you laugh, cry, and marvel at how human beings can adapt to the worst of conditions or fall under the grindstone of reality.
Author D. A. Smith places their stories in context by taking you behind the scenes for the Machiavellian decision behind the Iraq invasion; the morning Saddam Hussein was captured; the Occupy Wall Street protests following economic disaster and the most intimate struggles of those who survived the wars.
33 songs are woven into the script, covering the genres Alt Rock, Hip Hop, Gospel, Reggae, Blues and 20's Style Bebop. They include specific songs about President George W. Bush, Karl Rove, Osama bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, and President Barack Obama.
More than simply an album or play, The 9/11 Project is meant to provide a focus for the American public to discuss, to understand, and most of all, to never forget.
Provided in EPUB and MOBI for all major e-readers; a $19.90 value for only $9.95!
NOTE: This is not a novel, though it is as exciting. This is a script for a musical play, written and composed by D. A. Smith.
