The RFK Project

The 60’s in America was a decade of heroes, violence, love, death, progress, and disappointment. What began in 1960 as a decade of hope with the election of John F. Kennedy, ended with America embroiled in an impossible war, her streets filled with riots, and the history changing loss of three important figures. And now, as those who lived, governed, and shepherded change during the 60’s are passing, L.A. Theater Works presents a major new docudrama focused on Robert Kennedy’s personal and political journey.

The “RFK Project” chronicles his transformation from discomfort with and indifference towards the Civil Rights Movement to a champion and crusader. His story provides a compelling and dramatic illumination of this crucial decade, enabling a new generation to hear the words, feel the tension, and explore the issues that still resonate today.
