The Kimmel Center is proud to partner with Warrior Writers to present an evening of intriguing poetry performance about decisions around family and parenthood facing those who serve in the military. Veterans will be sharing their struggles of bringing the war home to meet their children, how their own parents reacted to their military experiences, and more. This unique evening will expand your mind and pull your heartstrings with performances from both local veterans and musicians working together.
This special evening will feature Philadelphia favorite and former Kimmel Center Jazz Resident Luke Carlos O'Reilly, who will create an improvised musical backdrop to these moving stories.
