On September 30th, Rafi Productions hosted
Ms. Rana Husseini, a human rights journalist from Amman, Jordan,
and Dr. Doan Viet Hoat a 20 year prisoner of conscience from
Vietnam
for Ariel Dorfman's play SPEAK TRUTH TO POWER
at the Jane Pickens Theatre in Newport, to raise funds for Amnesty
International.

The audience was captivated
as each of the defenders told their stories
about the work they've done to promote human rights in their
countries.
We are so grateful to them for traveling such a long distance,
and sharing their experiences with us.
And many, many thanks to the wonderful cast, shown above,
for all their enthusiasm for bringing the stories alive on stage.
