Al Staggs performs A View from the Underside: The Legacy of Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Whitley Auditorium, 7:30 p.m.
A one-person play brings the life of one of the great heroes of the 20th century to the stage. The audience is brought into the prison cell where Bonhoeffer awaits execution and listens to his struggles with evil, injustice and God. Bonhoeffer expresses moral outrage against the Nazi treatment of Jews and explains how that outrage led him to become involved in the German resistance movement, a commitment that would result in his hanging on April 9, 1945.
