If All The Sky Were Paper: A Play That Brings Battle and Home Front Letters to Life

Four-time Academy Award-nominee Annette Bening will be reading letters in the performance on 3/15 at 2:30. Gary Cole (Veep) will be reading letters in both performances, with more actors soon to be announced.

If All The Sky Were Paper was written by award-winning Author Andrew Carroll, is directed by John Benitz, and is based upon Carroll’s bestselling books War Letters and Behind The Lines. In 1998, Carroll launched a national initiative to honor U.S. troops, veterans, and their families by preserving their wartime letters. Since that time Carroll has traveled to 40 countries, including Iraq and Afghanistan, and has collected more than 100,000 previously unpublished letters (and now emails) from every conflict in American history.
