"AS POWERFUL AS EVER—A HIGHLY ENTERTAINING, STRIKINGLY TAUT DRAMA THAT YOU DON’T WANT TO END."

CHICAGO TRIBUNE

WINNER! 2020 TONY AWARD
BEST REVIVAL OF A PLAY!

This 1982 Pulitzer Prize-winning thriller has rocketed back into the spotlight, thanks to this 2020 Tony Award^®-winning Best Revival from Roundabout Theatre Company. “This is a play that deserves to be staged regularly all over America—though it’s hard to imagine that it will ever be done better than this. It keeps you guessing all the way to the final curtain” (The Wall Street Journal).

In 1944, on a Louisiana Army base, two shots ring out. A Black sergeant is murdered. And a series of interrogations triggers a gripping barrage of questions about sacrifice, service, and identity in America. Broadway’s Norm Lewis leads a powerhouse cast in the show Variety calls “a knock-your-socks-off-drama," directed by Tony winner Kenny Leon.

“A KNOCK-YOUR-SOCKS-OFF DRAMA. BREATHE SLOWLY AND KEEP YOUR HEARTBEAT STEADY IF YOU HOPE TO MAKE IT THROUGH THIS ONE WITHOUT BREAKING UP INTO LITTLE PIECES.”

VARIETY

“A BRILLIANT, FIERCELY WRITTEN, SEARING INDICTMENT OF CULTURAL AND INSTITUTIONAL RACISM.”
