Defiance (Philadelphia Premiere)

The second play in John Patrick Shanley’s Doubt trilogy, Defiance is a riveting look at race relations, honor and morality. Defiance speaks to the unique power struggle of the military on the Camp Lejeune Marine Corps base in North Carolina, 1971. Following the incredible national success of Doubt – winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Tony Award and Drama Desk Award for Best Play – BRT lands the Philadelphia premiere of this seminal work. Shanley’s work forces us to look deeper into the fabric of our society and our relationships and ask the provocative questions that inspire change.
