ENLISTED

Enlisted offers an insight to the life of an officer leading enlisted combat troops. Specifically, it’s a comedic look at a unit before, during and after a deployment, with a window into leadership attempting to gain control of its soldiers. 

The Play is written by Veterans Drew Anthony & Juston Graber, both pulling from their own experiences to show an honest yet hilarious POV about the military in a way that's never been done. 

“We did some research to see what was out there. What was done in the past and a lot of the work that’s been published on theater and stage has been more dramatic work, more of a murder happening in the unit, or some kind of some kind of drama,” Anthony shared. “I think this shows people the quirky day to day shenanigans that really happen in the military.” 

“What we’re hoping to do with this play is show a different kind of a light on people. Because the same way with our cast being a mix of veterans and civilians, when you join the military it’s full of people from everywhere that you have to work with. And it’s all to one specific unified mission. It’s kind of annoying to see that the military just gets painted as one way, it’s a lie. It’s bogus. It’s annoying. And we’re hoping to break that with this play.”
