Next season for Corrie play
Submitted by Rick on Mon, 03/06/2006 - 10:30pm.

From Seattle PI:

NEW YORK -- A prominent off-Broadway theater says it still hopes to present "My Name Is Rachel Corrie," a politically charged play about a young American student who was killed while trying to stop the Israeli destruction of a Palestinian home in Gaza.

"We have asked ... if we can do the play next season," James Nicola, artistic director of New York Theatre Workshop, said Monday in a statement.

Initially, the theater had planned the production for this month, but then reconsidered, drawing charges of censorship from its two creators, Katherine Viner, features editor of The Guardian newspaper in London, and actor Alan Rickman, who also directed the one-woman show.

Update -- 3/7/06:
