Poetic Theater Productions’ Veteran Voices program partners with The Loading Dock and the team behind The play War Dreamer to present two special showcases featuring military veterans and family members of veterans to share reflections on the military experience, reintegration into civilian life and hope for the future.

The two showcases will take place on at 3PM on Saturday March 11th and at 3PM on Saturday March 25th at the Wild Project in New York City’s historic East Village.

March 25th’s showcase will feature:

1PABLO, Jenny Pacanowski, Frank Glass, Sharon C. Wallace, Zina Bethea-Dawson, and David Stamps.

This event is funded in part by Poets & Writers through public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council.

Several of the participating veterans will also participate in a post show panel after the 7PM evening performance of War Dreamer on Saturday March 25th. 

About Loading Dock’s production of War Dreamer:

A claustrophobic, sonically-rich, psychological horror play that follows a female veteran grappling with conspiracy theories in post-war life. Written and co-directed by Leegrid Stevens, whose body of work explores the extremes of the human experience, War Dreamer was developed with extensive research, including several interviews with Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans.

Co-directed by Jacob Titus

Runs from March 3rd to 25th, 2023
