A Walk in the Woods

Born of real life, manifesting political commentary, the strength of A Walk in the Woods by Lee Blessing is its palpable and
invigorating reflection of humanistic behavior at its very best. At this most political of times, the heart of A Walk in the Woods, seemingly
political discussion, is instead the common humanity intrinsic to us all. Two
contrasting personalities grasp courage and compassion to find the path away from the brink of nuclear holocaust and towards hope. This enthralling and funny look back at American / Soviet disarmament talks is more enlightening and prescient than ever. The question now, as then, remains – is tolerance, understanding and dialogue more beneficial than rushing into conflict?
