Afif Safieh, the Century Foundation’s Daniel Levy, and actor Alan Rickman will appear as panelists on the “Talk Back” discussion segment following the presentation of MY NAME IS RACHEL CORRIE in New York.

Compiled by Alan Rickman and Katharine Viner, with the kind permission of the Corrie family, from writings left behind in the diaries, letters and e-mails of American activist Rachel Corrie, MY NAME IS RACHEL CORRIE chronicles the human, social and political evolution in the life and controversial death of a young woman. The play traces the life of Rachel Corrie from her early days in Washington state, through her experiences as an activist seeking to learn more about the community within Gaza. A triumph in London, the award-winning Royal Court Theatre production of MY NAME IS RACHEL CORRIE has opened in New York to an outpouring of critical acclaim – the best reviewed new play of the season.

Opening, Off-Off-Broadway

Though New York Theater Workshop bulldozed its planned production last season, this posthumous play has now arrived safely in the city. Ordinarily the life of a 23-year-old activist might make for a rather short evening of theater, but this drama, adapted by Alan Rickman and Katharine Viner from Corrie’s writings, won raves during its London run.
