For the Worlds Elsewhere Theater Company I edited this piece about the peace that naturally blossomed during the holidays of 1914 along the Western Front.

It was a collaboration between several members of the company: co-writers Jack Nee and Ilana Greenberg-Sud, and performers Jamie McConnaughy, Grady W Smithey III, and Maciek Nowak/Wensleydale Cheddar.

It was first streamed as part of the WE Winter Cabaret, and we all thought it would work well as its own video.

I hope you're all safe during this holiday time. I'll be celebrating, remotely, with my family - so that we may be able to celebrate, together, next year.

Life to Not-Fascism,
