En route to scheduled performances at three major Fringe Festivals, actor David Kleinberg will bring his gritty and true to life 70-minute solo piece on his year as an army combat correspondent in Vietnam. The show traces his journey in Vietnam from arriving in country as a 23-year-old supporter of the war, then following as he slowly shifts his position as the year unfolds, returning home to protest the war after a tragic rocket attack.
Kleinberg interweaves his solo performance with video clips from LBJ's "Why Vietnam" speech, his own 8mm film of the destruction of a Vietnamese village "for no good reason", scenes from Bob Hope's USO tour and Mike Wallace's reporting on the rocket attack.
PARENTS: This show includes strong language, adult themes and video of an actual attack on a Vietnamese village and is not intended for children.
David Kleinberg is a San Francisco native whose ground-breaking solo theater work, "The Voice: One's Man Journey Into Sex Addiction and Recovery," ran for 18-shows at San Francisco's Exit Theater. It was a hit at the 2012 Boulder Fringe, winning an encore performance and 18 web reviews (16 five star, 2 four star). David is also a stand-up comedian who has appeared with Robin Williams, Dana Carvey, and others. He was the editor of the San Francisco Chronicle's Sunday Datebook for 14 years during a 34-year editing/writing career at the newspaper. Written and performed by David Kleinberg, directed by Mark Kenward and developed with David Ford.
