Thank you for your generous support and encouragement regarding The Need to Know. I could never have done it without you and I never imagined six years ago, when I wrote a little show in my attempt to understand 9/11, my experience as a Veteran and my connection to it all, that it would end up at this groovy space with such groovy people.

I am deeply grateful to you all and look forward to sharing this night with you.

With love and peace

April
