What if our aloneness isn't a tragedy? What if our aloneness is what allows us to speak the truth without being afraid? From Jewish actor Sascha Shinder, with a predominantly Jewish team led by producer Gabriel Speechly and award-winning Scottish director Susan Worsfold, comes a bold new staging of My Name is Rachel Corrie. Edited by Alan Rickman and Katherine Viner, this urgent play brings to life the story of 23-year-old activist Rachel Corrie, who left her American home to stand in solidarity with Palestinians – her story told in her own uncompromising voice.
