American Atrocities in Vietnam: A Documentary Environment

This script is essentially a description and text of three performances given as part of the “Angry Arts Against the War in Vietnam Week” in New York City (January 29-February 5, 1961). The playing area was a former courtroom in the Old Courthouse on 2nd Street and Second Avenue. The piece can be done, however, in a conventional theatre as well as a created environment—and was done so, at the Gate Theatre on Second Avenue, a few days before the first performance at the Courthouse.
