The Exonerated at Folger Theatre

Tonight we saw Measure for Measure at the Folger Shakerspear Theatre. Fabulous performance. I picked up a copy of their upcoming events and for anyone who is in the D.C. area, wanted to share this really interesting event:

Friday, March 17 at 8:00 p.m. Jessica Blank and Erik Jensen - two noted playrights and actors - will be performing scenes from their play "The Exonerated" which is based on interviews they conducted with over 40 wrongfully-convicted death row inmates across the country. Following the scenes from the play, the authors will discuss their new book: Living Justice: Love, Freedom, and the Making of Exonerated. Click here for more details.

A tale from two summers ago finally hits the page. One of my favorite trips from Kazakhstan...and one of my favorite stories was just published at GoNomad.com.
