True stories.

In 2006, the play Boots on the Ground told the real-life, poignant stories of Americans impacted immediately by the US invasion of Iraq.

Nearly 20 years later — as we still deploy troops, as the war’s legacies still ripple — Someone Will Remember Us offers the rare story of the ongoing fallout both for those who served and for the civilians caught up in the conflict. This compelling 90-minute play is distilled from dozens of interviews with US military veterans; a Gold Star family; Iraqi civilians; and refugees who have relocated to America — ordinary individuals remarkable in their perseverance, and all now searching for a little bit of peace.
