Please help; Identify this show!

My friend, who works in the theater department of our school, told me that while she doesn't know the name of next year's play, she knows it's about the Vietnam war and has the word "Heart" in the title. Any ideas? Thanks, everyone!

There is an old play called "The Hasty Heart," about soldiers in WWII - is it possible that there's a version updated to Vietnam?

Ummm... "A Piece Of My Heart" perhaps? By Shirley Lauro?

I think it is Piece of my Heart. I'm not 100% sure on that, but I saw it at my former high school and it is a great production. It brought both men and women to tears.

Piece of my heart is SUCH a good script. We submitted it last year, but someone said it was too woman-centered. Grr...and duh!

There's always room for pathos - and jazz hands.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! And it's okay that it's woman-centered...I'm at an all-girl's school! :P

I think I've seen that. Great show.
