Vietnam Trilogy, TheVietnam Trilogy, The
Three powerful plays about the Vietnam War that will capture your attention. . . Survivor is the story of a man who survives intense combat in Vietnam but is haunted by the experience and racked with guilt, years after returning home. The war still exists within him as he goes down a precipitous path of self-destruction. The Innocents of War tells the story of the family of a soldier who is MIA (Missing in Action). Over a period of twenty-plus years, the effects of his uncertain fate plays out on each family member differently. In the end, harsh reality takes a surprising twist. Rap depicts combat veterans who have returned home from Vietnam and years later are struggling to sort out their lives. Through group therapy at the Veterans Administration, they try to make sense of readjusting from the combat zone to civilian life. For many of the men, it's difficult. For some, it's impossible. There is a complex tapestry woven from the characters in each play, showing how war can affect each individual emotionally, mentally, and physically. Veterans will be able to relate to the aftereffects of combat, and those who haven't experienced it will walk away with a clearer understanding of the impact of the war experience on both the soldiers and their families. The Vietnam Trilogy presents a realistic view of the men who fought, the ones who died, and the ones who were psychologically scarred by the war.
