One Red Flower

This powerful musical from Emmy-winner Paris Barclay is an intimate, searing look at wartime Vietnam through the eyes of the men who fought and died there. Set in 1969, One Red Flower is inspired by a published collection of actual letters to home written by soldiers serving in the Vietnam War. Set to a score based in the rock-n-roll rhythms of the period, the story compels, informs and entertains with a glimpse into the often hellish, sometimes light-hearted experiences of our American fighting soldiers. This timely work reminds us once again how the present and future are often a reflection of the past.
