So happy this this been released and students of the play can watch it in lessons! Thank you.

Man Oscar is doing a great job here!! Wish I could see him on stage playing this

I miss the virtual readings! I can’t wait to see Charlaine in more!

I wish i could see the whole play

This is January 31st 2024, first time watching this, maybe will take me a week, so be it, I will edit this coment later I'm at 3:33

Which is the translation of this reading please?

When I was growing up in the early 60’s and going to a Catholic school, we were often taught moral lessons through stories such as this and I found myself looking to learn , from habit, from patient Griselda’s humbleness and her unassuming attitude towards her husband. Her love for him causing her to deny her own needs and always putting him first. This is in direct contrast to Margaret Atwood’s story of the two parts of Griselda that we see in so many families today. Griselda today has two parts warring against each other, one wanting to take care of her husband and children while the other Griselda is seeking to appease her own desires for love, recognition, and her own ambitions. This is the war every woman fights in today’s society. If we sacrifice to take care of our families the world only overlooks our efforts as laziness, or uselessness, while if we chase our own desires the litany of crass names and other judgements as Atwood listed, can be expected to be thrown our way. As families break, children are lost, and households crumble the effective ways to resolve these issues continue to escape us. Will we ever manage to help each other find ways to keep our families intact or will impatient Griselda continue to eat the problems that get in her way?

Five minutes ago, I was sharing information about the Theater of War productions as a model for important online events and saw the announcement that THIS PRODUCTION IS AVAILABLE. Heavens! Sound the notice. I'll be back to watch all the way through AGAIN. YIPPEE. Right now, sharing on Facebook.

Im watching this, bcoz im gonna play the role of TIRESIAS on Thursday 😢😂

Freddy from House of Cards !

I've listened to the amazing KPR interview twice and visited with this author on his front porch and I have to wonder, what is the point of people reading the book. I guess it's just not for me, but I hope it does not deter anyone from listening to John's interviews, watching the documentary Vietnam, or reading the book.

Great!!

Awesome ❤

I Love His characters in movies. I think he is a great actor...but until he pulls off that talisman from his neck... I feel Keith is acting his greatest performance right here. At 26:30 min in he mentions one of the BIGGEST roadblocks to the liberation, yet the remaining obstacle is the word play... There are no Black or White people. What I see in many Country's across the Plane are Indigenous people ill affected by Foreigners, colonializing under the name of a Religion or a Political framework. Anyone with access to Google Search would not be so willing to wear a symbol which is documented for having caused all types of turmoil and loss of life in the name of GOD, regardless of anyone's personal conviction. Sorry, not sure how to take this...Put some Money where the Mouth is to all who subscribe to such religious or political dogma.

Oscar Isaac is a god!

Thank you so much for uploading this recording. I feel very grateful to get to engage with this, even though I wasn't there live.

'promo sm'

I watched this live 3 years ago and was really moved, then was bummed they never released it. Thank you so much!

Astounding

SO MOVED! You inspire me, Bryan!

Thanks ❤🙏🏻

Love it! I was entranced when I stumbled upon it 3 years ago during the Pandemic. It was my introduction to Theater of War. Seen many since.

The way I have waited three years for this. I'm SO EXCITED!

Really interesting, and an excellent presentation by Tracie Thoms.

👋👀SEX!

Margaret Atwood can do no wrong.

Both the performance of Frederick Douglass's prophetic perspective and the response by panel and community are motivating, informative, and powerfully relevant. Thank you for offering this openly like this.

Nurses need and deserve our attention!

a goddess playing a prophet

This is such a powerful and healing theatre experience. Thank you all.❤

Spoken well, Arbiter. Spoken well!

Amazing performance by Keith David, and Douglass's words (sadly) remain incredibly pertinent in 2023.

💝

❤❤❤

Awesome!

“In spite of all your religion and laws, he is a rejected man.” Wow. 🤯 How true. 😔

Keith! I knew that you were going to be a great actor and orator in the early 1970's in the Corona -East Elmhurst Summer Program for youth! Congratulatios on your tremendous and well deserved success!

Does anybody know which translation of Philoktetes was used for the script?

Keith David is absolute perfect for this resuscitation! His voice his diction - his gravitas! 💝

Terrific! Thank you for your amazing work.

fantastic

Just amazing, so moving. Thank you to all for putting this together and most importantly thank you to all veterans involved and beyond.

THANK YOU ... Two small words that hold worlds of meaning. This experience has entered me and I am changed. Blessings and Love. 💖🤗🙏

That was SO powerful! I'm exhausted after it and that is a good thing. Amazing singing!!!

Powerful connections made by powerful souls who have worked at their own awareness and true presence in today's world. Blessings and thank you for sharing this!
