Rachel Corrie ... the fight continues



The Second Death of Rachel Corrie
Censorship of the Worst Kind

By VANESSA REDGRAVE Counter Punch March 6th 2006

"I am urging the Royal Court Theatre to sue the New York Theatre Workshop for the cancellation of the production of "My Name Is Rachel Corrie". Not because I donated money for this production, which the Royal Court have been fundraising for--a target of 50,000 pounds, underwritten by Alan Rickman.

This is censorship of the worst kind. More awful even than that.It is black-listing a dead girl and her diaries.A very brave and exceptional girl who all citizens, whatever their faith or nationality, should be proud and grateful for her existence. They couldn't silence her voice while she lived, so she was killed. Her voice began to speak again as Alan Rickman read her diaries, and Megan Dodds became Rachel Corrie.Now the New York Theatre Workshop have silenced that dear voice."

March 16th is the third anniversary of the murder of Rachel Corrie. For more information about events go here and petition to NYTW , comment, etc., also here and more in the NYTimes today here

Also rather tedious piece but plenty of information about dramatic spat by Walter Davis in Counterpunch Theater, Ideology and the Censorship of "My Name is Rachel Corrie"
