If folks recall, she was killed in 2003 when she was run over by an
Israeli bulldozer.

Hey everyone.  

We are opening Rachel Corrie tonight. It's been a tough road. We have
been getting constant calls and threats of picketing and loss of patrons
but the board has stood firm. 

We will be having a talk back night on Thursday October, 15. I know that
the Jewish community is planning on having some people there as well as
putting some literature in the lobby. I am hoping to find someone who
knows the other side of the conflict to come as well. We would like to
have some literature that represents the Palestinian side as well. If
anyone knows of any campus groups that I could contact please email or
call me. I don't really know the university system enough to know where
to find RSO's.

Thanks,

Wesley Huff

Based on the life and writings of Rachel Corrie, a young American artist
and activist, this one-person play follows Corrie from her home in
Olympia, Washington to the center of the Israeli/Palestinian Conflict.
Corrie, who was only twenty-three at the time of her death, traveled to
Gaza as part of a pro-Palestinian peace movement. Her letters, journal
entries, and e-mails to family and friends are at the heart of this
powerful drama, which showcases her search for meaning and purpose in a
time of great turmoil.

On Thursday, October 15, there will be a special "Talk-Back" session
following the performance. We encourage participation and discussion,
and we hope to see you at the show.
