Stuff Happens

David Hare’s timely drama about the Iraq War Stuff Happens receives its New York premiere as part The Public Theater in the 2005-06 Season, directed by Daniel Sullivan.

A provocative and thoughtful play about how and why we went to war in Iraq, Stuff Happens brings to the stage an ongoing story of great national and international importance, with characters and dialogue seemingly ripped from today’s headlines. Inspired by actual events — both public and private — that have been authenticated from multiple sources, Stuff Happens is a powerful history play that brilliantly transforms “real life” into profound drama.
