A Piece of My Heart by Shirley Lauro is a powerful, true drama based on the book of the same name by Keith Walker. The play tells the accounts of six women and their experiences with the Vietnam War: two Army nurses, an Army officer, a Navy nurse, a member of the Red Cross, and a singer. The script portrays each young woman before, during, and after her tour in a war-torn nation. Other cast members play a well-rounded ensemble representing others affected by the war. The show is moving and powerful, with all of the brutality and raw honesty that comes with the history that the play describes.

We are attempting to plan short panel discussion with a number of Vietnam War veterans to discuss their experiences and enlighten our community to follow our performance on Sunday, October 18. If you are in contact with any veterans that would be interested in participating in the panel, please invite them to attend and let me know! We would love to be able to offer our students a chance for this unique and respected perspective to accompany our production.

Thanks again for your continued support of the Birdville High School Theatre Department!
