Voices Beneath the Veil

The Afghan Women's Writing Project allows Afghani women and girls to let their voices be heard, a dangerous thing in their corner of the world. Through essays and poetry, the women express their hopes for the future, their fears and their innermost feelings. Tonight at 7 p.m. at Foam (3359 Jefferson Avenue; www.foamvenue.com) local actresses Madeline Finn, Michelle Rebollo, London Reynolds, Casey Renee Richards and Michelle Zielinski read selected works of fifteen Afghani women during Voices Beneath the Veil. The performance will be recorded and sent to Afghanistan so that the writers can see the impact their work has on others. Admission to Voices Beneath the Veil is free.
