What I Heard About Iraq

Adapted for the stage and directed by Simon Levy, What I Heard About Iraq utilizes actual direct quotes from politicians, military chiefs, U.S. soldiers and Iraqi citizens to explore the unfolding human story behind the U.S. invasion of Iraq. By revealing what was said and what is being said about our involvement in the war, both the truth and the lies are unmasked.

Featuring a multi-ethnic cast of five actors portraying multiple roles, the fully-staged production also interweaves multi media sounds and images from real news footage. Levy has written three additional renditions of the piece – including a version for Voices only – which the Fountain Theatre has made available to theatres, schools, advocacy groups and human rights organizations worldwide.
