​THE TIME OF OUR LIES

The Time Of Our Lies tells Zinn’s personal history, including being a soldier who dropped bombs on Royan, France in WWll. This fateful act determined Zinn's life’s journey, shaping the man who would become a moral compass for the U.S. in ways more relevant today than ever. The play includes songs as well as first-person accounts from other soldiers, juxtaposed against an incongruously beautiful backdrop of Butoh inspired movement.

​HOWARD ZINN

Howard Zinn was an American historian, author and social activist, widely considered one of the most influential thinkers of the 20th century. His landmark book, 
​A People’s History of the United States, has sold more two million copies and is read in schools throughout the U.S.

“By identifying the unfulfilled potentialities of my script, Bianca turned my pipedream into a real, performable play. In retrospect, her suggestions were what should have been obvious to me all along. Without her advice, I might have spent years stumbling around, discovering what my play wanted to be."
- Aaron Poochigian 
"Bianca is a consummate writer, a dedicated artist, and is enthusiastic to help other writers meet their highest potential. She is my go-to person for my script consultations."
- Shauna Vartanian
