“Impressively navigates the tricky boundaries that separate art and life, the haunted present and the haunting historical past..” New York Times

A group of actors gather to tell the little-known story of the first genocide of the twentieth century. As the full force of a horrific past crashes into the good intentions of the present, what seemed a far-away place and time is suddenly all too close to home. Just whose story are they telling?

Pulitzer Prize award-winning playwright Jackie Sibblies Drury collides the political with the personal in a play that is irreverently funny and seriously brave.
We Are Proud To Present . . . premiered off-Broadway at Soho Rep in 2012.

This new Modern Classics edition features an introduction by Leonor Faber-Jonker.
