Undesirable Secrets: A New Play
Decades after surviving the horrors of a Nazi concentration camp, a determined World War II medic and former POW navigates a deeply personal journey of remembrance, forgiveness, and justice, as he unearths long-buried secrets, confronts his own troubled relationship with his father, and embarks on a mission to bring closure and healing to the families of fallen comrades, ultimately finding solace and redemption in the power of friendship, resilience, and the courage to let go of undesirable secrets.
This play is written with the full support of the Acevedo Family and the Anthony C. Acevedo Foundation. To learn more about the foundation I proudly assisted in creating click here. |
