History isn't just behind us—it’s happening right now. France, 1940. On the brink of Nazi occupation, the world’s most formidable minds gather for one final, booze-soaked, high-stakes dinner. Gertrude Stein, Lillian Hellman, Agatha Christie, and Dorothy Parker have spent their lives wielding words as weapons—but tonight, the conversation turns to the terrifying reality of rising fascism. They are joined by a mystery guest, Muriel Gardiner, an unsung American hero who risked everything to pull lives from the wreckage of the Holocaust. In an era where modern-day "Muriels" are still taking to the streets to document injustice and protect the vulnerable, her story is no longer just history—it’s a call to action.

After a completely sold-out run in January and February, the sharp-witted and soul-stirring LITTLE WARS returns to Minneapolis for one weekend only in April. Come laugh, cry, and witness the power of resistance.

100% of proceeds benefit the Immigrant Law Center.
