"My Name is Rachel Corrie, directed by Trad Burns
Featuring Elizabeth Wood

The controversial and explosive My Name is Rachel Corrie is a docudrama based on the diaries of young American Rachel Corrie. Corrie was a member of the International Solidarity Movement (ISM) who traveled as an activist to the Gaza Strip during the Al-Aqsa Intifada. My Name is Rachel Corrie is a stunning account of one woman’s experiences as she passionately explores an unfamiliar world. Edited by Katherine Viner and Alan Rickman from Corrie’s recovered diaries and email correspondence, it premiered at the Royal Court Theatre in London. The Big Box presentation will be its regional premiere."
