Back
for it’s second year by popular demand, we are proud
to present Letters to Home. Working in association
with the Colorado Historical Society, adaptors Maggie Stillman
and Deni-Marie Warren have compiled a unique selection of
historic war letters written by soldiers to their families.
Letters to Home is an inspirational journey into
the soul of a soldier, their stories transcend politics and
reveal in their own words the hearts and minds of those who
have served our country. A reader’s theatre production.

"Taken
out of context, I doubt these letters would have had much
impact on me, as I am a bit jaded. Put together like this,
and letting the letters speak for themselves, no political
spin, no fear mongering, no grand exegesis on supporting the
troops, or not, or supporting the war, or not... made for
an irresistible heart opening extravaganza. And this was an
extravaganza of the heart and mind, not of the eyes. There
were no pretty pictures or flashy colors on tour in front
of us. Simply solid actors, exact direction, and tragic letters.
