On Stage
IN DARFUR
March 31–April 18, 2010 By Winter Miller Directed by Derek Goldman
Based on true events, this impeccably researched chronicle of the unfolding genocide in Sudan is a searing story of humanitarian urgency and compromised journalistic ethics. Can one woman's story stand for the plight of a nation? And what are the costs of mobilizing world opinion?
