Before the award winning film came the Broadway play, written by acclaimed film and television writer Aaron Sorkin (The West Wing). The electrically charged production interweaves a tale of honor and duty with one’s own moral code.
Set against the backdrop of NAVBASE Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, two marines find themselves facing a court martial on suspicion of murder. Their hope: Lieutenant Daniel Kaffee, a soft-ball loving Junior Grade slated to represent them against the wishes of the Marines’ most loyal supporter, Lieutenant Joanne Galloway. The truth about how and why Private Santiago lost his life is brought under intense scrutiny, including the questioning of Lieutenant Colonel Nathan R. Jessep.
