Elliot, A Soldier’s Fugue

Tracing the legacy of war through three generations of a Puerto Rican family, the play focuses on nineteen-year-old Elliot, a recently anointed hometown hero who returns from Iraq with a leg injury and a difficult question: Will he go back to war a second time? While on leave, Elliot learns the stories of his father and grandfather who served in Korea and Vietnam before him. Evocative, poignant, and heartfelt, this play examines the personal and generational impact of war.

*Filmed live at the Pear Theater and broadcast virtually during the pandemic.
