Letters Home: Voices from Iraq

Tuesday September 2, 2008

This performance was a staged reading of a work-in-progress which explores the Iraq war in American soldiers' own words through their letters, emails, and blogs. Developed by Jimmy Bohr, a director and casting director from New York City, Letters Home provides a unique human perspective on this controversial war. Bohr, now a professor in the Department of Theatre at The Ohio State University, plans to produce the completed work in Ohio and New York.
