Letters Home
2400 N. Lakeshore Drive Chicago
The Afghanistan and Iraq wars are brought to life through actual letters written by soldiers serving in the Middle East. The production is inspired by The New York Times article "The Things They Wrote;" subsequent HBO documentary Last Letters Home; and letters and correspondences from Frank Schaeffer's books Letters Home From America's Military Family, Faith of Our Sons and Keeping Faith. The play gives audiences a powerful portrait of the soldier experience in our ongoing wars.
