Public Invited To Reading Of Play On

Salvadoran Civil War February 17 At Marymount

Marymount University taught Leora Lihach that true empathy surpasses cultural boundaries and national borders. It’s a lesson she took to heart.

As a result, the 2016 graduate, along with the Teatro de la Luna Theatre Company, will bring a staged reading of Lihach’s play “Madres de la Revolucion” (Mothers of the Revolution) from 7 to 10 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 17 in Marymount’s Reinsch Library Auditorium, 2807 North Glebe Road. The reading will be in English and is free and open to the public.

The play is based on the real-life testimonio of Commander Nidia Díaz, a mother and revolutionary who endured prison and human rights violations during the Salvadoran Civil War. It grew out of Lihach’s honors thesis and was written while she was studying abroad at Oxford University in England through the honors program and Marymount’s Center for Global Education.
