The Public Theater

A world premier play from José Rivera, the Academy Award-nominated author of The Motorcycle Diaries.

In the Bolivian jungle, Che Guevara is captured and held in a one-room school house. For two days, no one -- not the Bolivian President nor the U.S. State Department -- is able to decide his fate. The young school teacher of the village insists that she be given permission to speak to the famous revolutionary. Her conversations with Che -- based on historical fact -- are the heart of School of the Americas.
