CURRICULUM KEY: American History, Contemporary/Social Issues, Character Education

War letters are, by their nature, intensely emotional, heartfelt and honest. Ten actors dramatically bring to life the stories of men and women who served their country. This moving production reveals a poignant and powerful oral history of the American soldier currently fighting the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. Letters Home is based on Frank Schaeffer’s books, and inspired by the New York Times articles, The Things They Wrote and the subsequent HBO documentary, Last Letters Home.
