Cassie Bradley stars in this moving, powerful play at Greenwich Theatre, exploring the life and enduring legacy of American activist Rachel Corrie through her own diaries and emails.

Greenwich Theatre presents a compelling new production of 'My Name Is Rachel Corrie', a play composed by Alan Rickman and Katharine Viner from the personal writings of the young American activist. In March 2003, Corrie tragically lost her life in Gaza while protesting the destruction of homes, and this production revisits her story over twenty years later. Starring Cassie Bradley, the play is a deeply personal exploration of idealism, wit, and humanity. By sharing her letters, diary entries, and emails, the performance offers a poignant, pro-peace perspective that remains urgently relevant today. Whether you are familiar with her story or encountering it for the first time, this production offers a vital space for reflection on the impact one individual can have in the pursuit of justice and peace. Running in the theatre's Studio, this 90-minute performance is suitable for those interested in contemporary theatre and social activism.
