Read The Arab Tribune's article on Letters Home

Letters Home puts the current wars in Afghanistan and Iraq front and center by bringing to life actual letters written by soldiers serving in the Middle East. The production is inspired by the New York Times Op-Ed Article 'The Things They Wrote' and the subsequent HBO documentary 'Last Letters Home,' and additionally uses letters and correspondences from Frank Schaeffer's book, 'Voices From the Front,' 'Letters Home From America's Military Family,' 'Faith of Our Sons,' and 'Keeping Faith.' The play without politicizing gives audiences a powerful portrait of the soldier experience in our ongoing wars. The initial production was critically acclaimed and was nominated for a Joseph Jefferson Award for "Outstanding New Play." The Alma Performing Arts Center is honored to present this wonderful production.

This event is being presented by the Alma Education and Arts Foundation.
