The Justice Theater Project concludes the critically acclaimed production of Someone Who'll Watch Over Me with a weekend of three final performances.

The News and Observer says "...the production entertains and enlightens, showcasing three fine talents."
The Triangle Theater Review calls it a "...must see drama... Don't miss it.".

This is not your typical hostage drama. There is no onstage violence, no debates about politics, no speeches about man’s inhumanity to man. Just three ordinary men using jokes, fantasies and spiritual credos to survive captivity.
Inspired by the true account of former prisoner Brian Keenan, “Someone Who’ll Watch Over Me” received a Tony nomination in 1992.
Featuring Ryan Brock as Michael the English professor, David Henderson as Edward the Irish journalist,and Byron Jennings as the American doctor, Adam.
