Written and Directed by Lorraine Brooks
Join us for a moving presentation in the form of a staged reading of quotes from First Responders to the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. These quotes are taken from interviews with men and women who were part of the rescue and recovery mission after the attacks and subsequent collapse of the Twin Towers and surrounding buildings.
A group of talented and dedicated actors will recreate the words of police, firefighters, and volunteers, as they navigated the overwhelming and dangerous tasks of searching for survivors, putting out fires, and evacuating Lower Manhattan to get citizens to safety.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Gear Up Foundation, founded by a retired NY Firefighter. Gear Up Foundation supplies fire and emergency equipment to underserved communities and third world countries.
