My Name is Rachel Corrie (SCHOOL MATINEE)

In 2003 Rachel Corrie, a 23 year old American student, was crushed to death by an Israeli Army bulldozer as she was trying to stop the demolition of a Palestinian home in Gaza.

My Name is Rachel Corrie is a controversial, passionate, and stunning account of one woman’s participation in events that most of us only experienced through watching the news.

Since its sold out opening in 2005, My Name is Rachel Corrie has acted as a catalyst for discussion and an eye-opener to the impact of western foreign policies on people living thousands of miles away.

“Here is a play where the real dialogue begins when the curtain comes down. My Name is Rachel Corrie is theater that not only stirs our hearts but sticks in our heads.”
– Newsweek

“Extraordinary power…funny, passionate, bristling with idealism and luminously intelligent.”
– London’s Time Out
