The Upcoming has two tickets to see The Trial of Jane Fonda at Park Theatre, starring Academy award nominee and Golden Globe winner, Anne Archer (Fatal Attraction, Patriot Games, Clear and Present Danger) as Jane Fonda, directed by Joe Harmston.

1972, North Vietnam: Driven to halt the slaughter of young lives, iconic movie star Jane Fonda travels to Vietnam where she is photographed laughing and clapping, astride an anti-aircraft gun, the sole purpose of which is to shoot down American planes.   Overnight the soldiers’ sexy pin-up becomes “Hanoi Jane”, traitor to her country and betrayer of those very young men

1988, Waterbury, Connecticut: Bitter demonstrations by veterans halt filming on a movie co-starring Fonda and Robert De Niro. Determined to stop her past dictating her future, Jane requests a meeting and enters a room full of angry men for whom the war still rages.

The content of the meeting is never divulged.

Having retraced Fonda’s steps in Vietnam, interviewed her guides and interpreters, dozens of veterans and Fonda herself, Terry Jastrow’s powerful drama conjectures the battles that were fought in that encounter, battles that are as much to do with the ability of recorded images to dictate our memories as they are to do with truth.
