“Couldn't be more timely…”

“Although it was first produced in 2007, Hold These Truths couldn't be more timely, when our government has issued an indefinite ban on refugees from Syria and a ban on immigrants from Muslim-majority countries. The play is particularly impactful as it shows its main character — from the time he was a boy memorizing the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence to the time he is an old man — refusing to give up "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."
