“A Piece of My Heart”
October 1 - October 25
$25 – $60
Women played a huge and often under-recognized role in the Vietnam War—both militarily and culturally. They worked under combat conditions, and carried invisible wounds long after the war ended. About 11,000 U.S. military women served in Vietnam, with the vast majority being nurses (Army, Navy, and Air Force). “A Piece of My Heart” is a vivid, personalized portrayal, giving names and faces to the thousands of women who served during the war, and acknowledging their roles as essential, even when they weren’t always appreciated at the time. The play has heart, humor, sadness and grief with a beautiful soundtrack of music from the sixties and seventies.
Tickets are $60 for adults; $55 for seniors; $25 for students of all ages (plus fee) and are available by calling the Playhouse box office at 860.767.7318 or purchase online.
