Gary Sinise Foundation presents "Last Out: Elegy of a Green Beret" with all-veterans cast, written by and starring Lt. Col. Scott Mann at Steppenwolf.The Gary Sinise Foundation is presenting an all-veterans cast performing "Last Out: Elegy of a Green Beret" at Steppenwolf Theatre, written by and starring Lieutenant Colonel Scott Mann, who served combat mission in Afghanistan.
Sinise's commitment to veterans was not inspired by playing Lieutenant Dan in "Forrest Gump"; the actor brought the Vietnam War drama "Tracers" to Steppenwolf in the 80s. "It was a very moving and powerful experience for me, it really solidified what would become a full-time service mission to support the men and women who serve our country," he said. "And then 10 years later I played Lt. Dan and that got me even more involved with our veteran community."
The Gary Sinise Foundation sponsors the "Last Out" tour. The foundation provides support of every kind for veterans in need. "They will recognize their own stories, it may stir up some emotions, certainly, but it may also open up some more doors to healing," Sinise said. "We have our teams there, to give them information about our outreach and accessibility to mental wellness programs.""In the beginning it was just kids wanting to do plays, we loved it, it grew and grew. There were many times along the way, Hosea, when we could have given up.
