historymatters Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 (edited) I am interested in if anyone else has had their high schooler(s) read Uhry's famous play, as I think I would like to include it next year as one of the two non-Shakespearean plays covered. We are Georgian's, my children are Jewish, and it has much historical importance (we recently visited The Temple, the synagogue which was bombed); not to mention, there's a great movie of it and a recent PBS stage production to be watched, too! I don't want to do any plays which cannot be watched either on stage, filmed on stage, or as a movie version. Thanks!

Penguin Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 We did not read the play, but I had my 9th grader watch the movie as part of a Lifespan Development Unit for Health. I thought it was a great film for a teen, and he found it very moving. Given your connection to the location / history, that play plus film sounds like it would be a great combo for you.

klmama Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Thank you for the reminder! I enjoyed watching both the play and the movie, but my dc have not seen it yet. Off to visit Netflix.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
