    Penn alumna and actress Melissa Fitzgerald (West Wing) will tell her story of doing theatre with the local population in Uganda. The work is chronicled in the documentary film Staging Hope, which tells the story of a cross-cultural collaboration between a group of American actors and 14 Ugandan teenagers (many former abducted child soldiers) as they work together on a theater program in war-torn northern Uganda.
