Play: Homeland Prayer 9/25-10/11. Son comes home with War injuries
Tina,is in a play about a couple whose son is injured in Iraq and ends up dying.
Homeland Prayer Sept 25th thru Oct 11th.

She plays the mother who uses her Christian faith to get her through the heartache and the husband is a Vietnam Vet who struggles through his own memories of Vietnam and his son's injuries.
She said the play is not pro or anti war.
The play is at the Jewish Center, but is just a venue for the play as Urban Samurai doesn't have their own place.

Tina also was in their production of Mother Theresa and Princess Diane.

On the Sunday, 2pm show, there is going to be discussion panels

They are going to put a clip of the play on the link below.

Tina said it is cheaper to order tickets on the link.

The link has a lot on it, so I thought i would post some of the particulars below.
It is $14.00 online, 16.00 at the door.
$10.00 on line and $12.00 at the door for Seniors and Students.
there are group discounts.

Two for One Tickets on Opening weekend: Sept 25.

Oct 5th at 7pm.. Pay what you Can tickets.

The carnage of a roadside bomb sends shock waves through a middle-American family as veteran Danny, beloved son, brother, and husband returns from Iraq critically wounded & unresponsive. As Danny clings to life the family grapples with anguish and uncertainty while trying to maintain some semblance of normalcy in their day-to-day lives. Hardest hit is the father Darden, a Vietnam Vet, conflicted with pride for his country and grief for his son. Jeff Carter's award winning drama sifts through the politics of war to uncover what lays at the very core, human suffering.

I haven't decided if I will go or not. i'm sure it will be good, but might be hard to watch.
