Under the artistic direction of Madrid native Julia Lopez, Flamenco Ole’s dynamic footwork, soulful live music, and sumptuous costumes are “mesmerizing.” -- The Philadelphia Inquirer

 War letters are intensely emotional, sometimes comical, always heartfelt and honest. In this poignant play, actors bring to life the true stories of American soldiers fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq. Letters Home takes no overtly political stand. Instead, it creates powerful portraits of the men and women who serve their country and the families they leave behind, including a teenager traumatized by ambush; a Marine frightened by a baby camel; a mother awaiting her son’s return; a devoted father writing to his newborn.
“Thoughtfully conceived, quietly elegant . . . compelling.” – Chicago Daily Herald
A discussion with actors, soldiers, and veterans follows this performance.
Ages 13 and up; running time is 90 minutes.

It’s like nothing you’ve every seen, and it’s fall-down funny! “They can get laughs simply by breathing.” – The New York Times Buy Tickets
