Tacoma Little Theatre Hosts MY NAME IS RACHEL CORRIE Talkback Tonight

Tacoma Little Theatre presents the emotional piece My Name is Rachel Corrie, directed by Niclas R. Olson, and featuring Lauren Nance. The production will be performed one night only, tonight, November 6, 2014 at 7:30pm.

NEW INFORMATION: Tacoma Little Theatre will welcome Craig and Cindy Corrie, Rachel's parents, for a special talkback to be held after the performance.

On March 16, 2003, Rachel Corrie, a twenty-three-year-old American, was crushed to death by an Israeli Army bulldozer in Gaza as she was trying to prevent the demolition of a Palestinian home. My Name is Rachel Corrie is a one-woman play composed from Rachel's own journals, letters and emails-creating a portrait of a messy, articulate, Salvador Dali-loving chain-smoker (with a passion for the music of Pat Benatar), who left her home and school in Olympia, Washington, to work as an activist in the heart of Israeli-Palestinian conflict. In the three sold-out London runs since its Royal Court premiere, the piece has been surrounded by both controversy and impassioned proponents, and has raised an unprecedented call to support political work and the difficult discourse it creates.

Tickets for the November 6, 2014 performance at 7:30pm are $10.00 for non TLT Members, and FREE for those who are members. Tickets may be purchased online at www.tacomalittletheatre.com, or by calling our Box Office at (253) 272-2281.
