Voices In Conflict

Our Price: $19.95

When Bonnie Dickinson and her drama students at Wilton High School in Connecticut began working on the Voices in Conflict script, she had no idea that it would stir up controversy and put her job in jeopardy. After the school received a complaint from a parent, who thought the play was anti-military, the principal deemed the play �educationally inappropriate,� and the performance was canceled. The story subsequently appeared in the New York Times, and precipitated a media firestorm that launched the play and Wilton into the national spotlight.

Voices in Conflict is part of CPTV�s Local Lens � Producers of the Future initiative. The initiative is an incubator for emerging independent producers and production companies, as well as seasoned professionals with fresh ideas for new 21stcentury content. As part of the Local Lens project, CPTV will select a limited number of up-and-coming producers to be �Local Lens Producers in Residence,� and provide them with mentoring, training and an opportunity to see their work come alive on CPTV.
