The Theatre Communications Group has published the play and is asking $12.95 a copy.
Dear Friends:
Due to the extraordinary and expected (among optimists) success of the play “My Name is Rachel Corrie” it has been extended in New York City through December 30th. There is no better review!!! The media has been predominantly fair-handed — and the response from audiences exceptional. Bravo to Megan Dodds, Alan Rickman, Katharine Viner, the producers Dena Hammerstein and Pam Pariseau, and… to the Corrie family.
When the play opened we were told that word-of-mouth was the most important factor in determining whether the play would be extended. So bravo also to friends of Rachel’s Words, and all who have worked together to bring to bring the play “home” to the United States. In doing so we have also brought Rachel a fraction of justice that she still has not received from Israeli courts or the U.S. government, despite extraordinary efforts that are being made on both fronts by courageous people.
So “My Name is Rachel Corrie” will continue to be seen and heard. If you have not yet seen the play, please do. The discount for friends of Rachel’s Words still applies; see info below.
Our next email will bring you up to date on all the work and events happening as a result of Rachel’s Words. What began as a response to the cancellation of the play has developed into a creative initiative with a life and direction of its own. As always, any donations will be gratefully accepted and applied directly to our growing efforts.
Once again, congratulations and thanks to all!
Sincerely,
Rachel’s Words
Kathleen Chalfant, Sally Eberhardt, Jen Marlowe, Ann Petter, Brian Pickett, Dave Reed, Suzy Salamy, Tom Wallace
