Written by emerging writer Quiara Alegria Hudes, Elliot, A Soldier's Fugue is a new play that explores the Puerto Rican experience in the US military. As Elliot Ruiz grapples with his recent return from active duty in Iraq, the military experiences of his father and grandfather unfold, revealing startling similarities and uniting the Ruiz men across time. Driven by their passions and memories, with consciences shaped by guilt and hope, these three men mine the black holes of war. As Elliot's tale moves back in time, the stories of his father, mother and grandfather move forward until past and present inevitably collide, wringing love and beauty from devastation. Melding poetic dreamscape with stream-of-consciousness narrative, Elliot, A Soldier's Fugue explores unspoken connections between individuals, across time and generations. Davis McCallum directs.

Appropriate for all ages.
