DESCRIPTION:DWR is interactive, educational theatre that explores the Drug War in 
 Colombia, South America (recipient of over $4 billion in US foreign 
 assistance money since 2000) and the US through digital images, puppets and 
 humor.  During the show, [puppet character] “Camilo the Campesino Coca 
 Farmer” from Colombia shares his “first person testimony” of being 
 fumigated as part of the US-financed Plan Colombia package 
 while—thousands of miles away--“Strugglin’ Stan the US Hustler” 
 reflects on his experience being incarcerated for a non-violent drug crime. 
  “Carla the Common Sense Mechanic” helps the audience question what is  
 “under the hood” and  really “driving” the Drug War, while 
 “Babblin’ Babs the US Bureaucrat” defends current US policy.   Our 
 popular education style show is a hit for university, community and 
 faith-based groups; unlike a traditional lecture, our engaging shows invite 
 audiences to get involved in their own learning.  Yes, the Drug War is 
 serious--but learning about it should be fun!  We’ll see you at the show!
