“North Dakota Voices of the Great War” Play

Experience powerful stories of courage, sacrifice, and resilience during “North Dakota Voices of the Great War,” a theatrical production at the North Dakota Heritage Center & State Museum in Bismarck, presented the week of Veterans Day.

From the initial enthusiasm of going to war to the realities of its horrors, “North Dakota Voices of the Great War” brings to life the deeply personal experiences of North Dakotans throughout World War I. Interwoven with songs from the era, this powerful play captures the voices of young men and women who served overseas and the families who supported them from home.

• Tuesday, Nov. 11, Veterans Day, 2 p.m.
• Friday, Nov. 14, 7 p.m.
• Saturday, Nov. 15, 7 p.m.

Produced by the State Historical Society of North Dakota and directed by Tom Chase, “North Dakota Voices of the Great War” was written by University of Mary faculty Daniel Bielinski and Joseph T. Stuart, Ph.D., and first performed by the university’s theater department.
