RETURNING IN SEPTEMBER BY POPULAR DEMAND!

SEPTEMBER 20–26
St. Germain Stage

Unsung American hero Gordon Hirabayashi fights passionately for the Constitution against an unexpected adversary: his own country. During World War II, he defies the US government’s orders to forcibly remove and mass incarcerate all people of Japanese ancestry, launching a 50-year journey from college to courtroom and eventually to a Presidential Medal of Freedom. A story filled with hope, this play will leave you cheering for a man who stood up for the true meaning of patriotism.

“Stunning! A brilliant portrayal of a genuine hero.”
