Handbook of Civilian Defense (What Every Loyal American Can Do To Help The United States Win The War): A word-for-word theatrical adaptation (with original music) of the 1942 government handbook published to prepare families for uncertainty and violence, then and now. This world premiere production summons the anxiety, ignorance and hopefulness of an eighty-year-old public service announcement to awaken 21st century world citizenship. Written and directed by Wesley Savick and presented by Juvenilia, a professional experimental theatre ensemble in residence at Suffolk University, Boston.
