If All the Sky Were Paper is Awarded NEA Grant

The National Endowment for the Arts has announced its second round of fiscal year 2013 Art Works grants, and Chapman University, through project manager Associate Professor of Theatre John Benitz, has been awarded $20,000 to support a tour of Andrew Carroll’s If All the Sky Were Paper, produced at Chapman in 2012 and 2010. The Fountain Theatre in Los Angeles will collaborate to produce the play adapted from Mr. Carroll’s books War Letters and Behind the Lines in which letters from wars and conflicts ranging from the American Revolution through the present-day reveal the full spectrum of human emotions during American conflicts.  Professor Benitz will direct the tour.
