VETERANS VOICES 2015 by Erasing the Distance
May 19, 20 and 21, 2015 at 7:30pm
VETERANS VOICES made its world premiere at Filament Theatre in November 2013. Originally created with students from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology, this version of VETERANS VOICES will feature elements from the original show as well as new material. Each story featured in VETERANS VOICES was collected from real people via audio-recorded interviews. The stories were transcribed, edited and shaped into theatrical monologues, which are then performed by professional actors.
GENERAL tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door. DISCOUNT tickets are $10 for Students/Seniors and Groups (10+).
Running time is approximately 75 minutes with no intermission.
