The University of Iowa's Hancher Theater will present Healing Wars by Liz Lerman, a dance theatre piece that explores the American Civil War with characters who migrate through history to contemporary wars, during the week of November 9-15, 2014. Featuring actor Bill Pullman, an ensemble of dancers represents medics and soldiers from the Civil War to today while asking how we experience and recover from war. Lerman will have two additional residency periods at the university in order to integrate art into a variety of academic areas.
