"ARLINGTON"
Epic Play by
Garry Michael White, Playwright and Palm d’Or (Cannes) winning
screenwriter of “Scarecrow” (Al Pacino and Gene Hackman)
"ARLINGTON" tells the story of America’s loss of innocence,
as it explores the palpable evidence of the United State’s constant,
insatiable thirst for war. "ARLINGTON" shines on the struggle
to maintain our humanity, and our declining virtue. The play is told
against 5 separate entities: World War I, The Second World War, the
Korean War, the conflict in Viet Nam, and finally, the war in the
souls of Americans as a result of 9/11. In this play, no battlefield
blood is spilled; no foreign soil is touched. In the end,
"ARLINGTON" is a moving, occasionally humorous play about the
reaches of war, and the inevitable ways in which we conquer
ourselves. |
