The New Victory Theater's production of Lifeboat will host two special talkbacks. These will begin immediately after the show, which starts at 7PM and runs for approximately 70 minutes, and are open to all ticket-holders. The show tells the true story of two teenage girls on a ship that set sail from Liverpool to Canada to escape the bombings in World War II era Britain. When the ship was torpedoed by a German U-Boat, the two were among the eleven survivors and spent 19 hours on a lifeboat in the water, determined to survive.
