Guantánamo: Honor Bound to Defend Freedom

Assembled by Victoria Brittain and Gillian Slovo and directed by Nicolas Kent and Sacha Wares, Guantánamo: Honor Bound to Defend Freedom is a play based on the spoken and written testimony of Guantanamo detainees, lawyers and public officials. Their interviews were conducted at the end of March and the beginning of April 2004. Numerous attempts were made to get the viewpoint of members of the government, but to no avail.

Danny Glover, will perform at the final performance, Sunday, December 19th at 3PM. Mr. Glover will assume the role of Lord Justice Steyn, the British magistrate who objects to the detainment of political prisoners at Guantánamo Bay, an American military base in Cuba. Archbishop Desmond Tutu performed the same role in October.
