Boston: The Battle Not Begun by Jack Beatty
An Equity Reading of a new play by Jack Beatty, award-winning author, NPR News Analyst (On Point). Directed by Myriam Cyr.
In September 1938, British Prime Minister, Neville Chamberlain met with Hitler three times. A record was kept of their conversations. This play goes beyond what they said to explore who they were.
