Daniel Berrigan wrote the play almost entirely from the court transcripts of the trial, and (with a re-write job by Saul Levitt) Michael Butler's new production is very simply a competent condensation of the events of the trial of those nine Catholic radicals who raided the draft board of small-town Catonsville, Maryland and used home-made napalm to destroy 378 folders from the 1-A file...

Willwerth was joined by Mary Cronin and Leonard Levitt, who helped reconstruct what had happened behind the walls and how the towns people of Attica viewed the conflict.

For one, ITT Levitt Development Corp., a subsidiary of the largest U.S. home-building company, is building "Palm Coast," the nation's biggest "new town." A gargantuan project, it will in 20 years plunk 750,000 people onto 100,000 acres of now uninhabited coast land near St. Augustine. Levitt spent nearly $1,000,000 on environment planning to achieve a community whose residents will live in virtually pollution-free neighborhoods connected by canals. Housing density will be 2.5 homes...
