Theatricum Botanicum inaugurates its second performance space, the S. Mark Taper Foundation Pavilion, with a one-woman play composed from Rachel Corrie's journals, letters and emails. Susan Angelo directs Samara Frame as the young activist who left her home and school in Olympia, Washington to work in the heart of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Since its premiere in 2005 at London's Royal Court Theatre, this theater 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. "I have been in Palestine for two weeks and one hour now...I think, although I'm not entirely sure, that even the smallest of these children understand that life is not like this everywhere...I'm witnessing chronic, insidious genocide and I'm really scared, and questioning my fundamental belief in the goodness of human nature. This has to stop." Rachel Corrie: www.rachelcorrie.org Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum IN GENERAL: For a more relaxed experience, please arrive 30 minutes prior to performance time.
