As we gather for this annual event, we will call to mind some of the many voices who have spoken TRUTH TO POWER asserting why nuclear weapons must never be used again. “Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.”

Our Players will enact the pivotal personas of ...

DANIEL ELLSBERG, “On several occasions, false alarms during past crises could have triggered nuclear war, except for the prudence of individuals in the system.”

AVA HELEN PAULING, “I, in talking with Linus thought that it was of course important that he do his work, but if the world were destroyed, then the work would not be of any value. So that he should take part of his time and devote it to peace work.”

RUSSIAN LIEUTENANT COLONEL STANISLAV PETROVA, “The siren howled, but I just sat there for a few seconds, staring at the big, back-lit, red screen with the word ‘launch’ on it.”

... and other impassioned activists. Please join us for this important remembrance.
