A Piece of My Heart
By Shirley Lauro
Suggested by the book by Keith Walker
Directed by Nora Hussey
May 31- June 24, 2018 at the Ruth Nagel Jones Theatre
On Monday, June 4, Wellesley Repertory Theatre (WRT) will host a special performance at 7pm to honor those who have served with free tickets for veterans.
This is a powerful, true drama of six women who went to Vietnam: four nurses, an army officer and a country western singer booked to entertain the troops. The play portrays each young woman before, during and after her tour in the war-torn jungle. It ends as each leaves a personal token at The Wall in Washington.
“There have been a number of plays dealing with Vietnam, but none with the direct, emotional impact of Ms. Lauro’s work”. – NY Times
Under the direction of Nora Hussey, WRT is proud to feature critically acclaimed company members and Boston-area professionals: Danny Bolton*, Andrea Lyman*, Alan White*, Jenna Lea Scott*, including three Wellesley College alumnae: Marge Dunn, Victoria George*, Ariela Nazar-Rosen and current Davis Scholar Sarah Lord*. The set is designed by Janie Howland, Lights by Matt Whiton, Costumes by Chelsea Kerl, Sound by George Cooke, and Projection Design by Johnathan Carr.
