Oswald: New Historical Drama Makes Its West Coast Premiere
- Full Price:
- $25.00
- Our Price:
- $12.50
Write Act Repertory Theatre presents the West Coast premiere of Oswald. As Friday, November 22, 1963 draws to a close, President John F. Kennedy and police officer J.D. Tippit both lie dead in Dallas, the victims of a shooter. Amidst the chaos that ensues, an evasive 24-year-old man named Lee Harvey Oswald is arrested and becomes the number-one suspect. It is the job of Captain William Fritz to extract a confession. As evidence mounts, defiance is Oswald's only defense. Based on the bristling and explosive actual interrogation of Lee Harvey Oswald by the Dallas Chief of Homicide, Oswald depicts one of the most engrossing battles ever brought to the stage. Forty-eight hours and seven minutes after the president of the United States was shot and killed, another shot rings out in Dallas -- hitting Lee Harvey Oswald and ending the nation's chance to learn the truth. Richmond Shepard directs. Learn More

The story is quite touching and the acting is amazing - each of the 8 actors created a distinct character to help move the story along. I imagine the director was very careful in how he handled it all for it to move me the way it did. It runs only two more nights. I wish I had seen it sooner so I could tell my friends.Written on Feb 26 2010
