In this timely play, an aging, former U.S. Army guard recounts his days as a back-up guard at Spandau prison, guarding former High Ranking Nazis sentenced at the Nuremburg Trials. As the play unravels, a chilling yet intimate portrait of the human side of inhumanity begins to emerge.

In flashback we observe the witty and wounding exchanges between the once powerful prisoners and the young guard. Glimpses of mankind in all its dark and twisted forms, as well as the dark humor springing from the banality of prison life.

In this poignant character study, redemption comes not in absolution but in unheard truths laid bare in the uncompromising gaze of a green guard's temporary watch, and his present day recollections as a slowing, older man.

Nazi Lavender explores the eternal questions of morality, duty and the potential darkness that resides within every soul.

An evocative and powerful meditation on both just how far removed we all think we are from the worst humanity has ever offered, and how we fail to realize just how much we may have in common with the same.

The play reminds us that even today, we both fully embrace or fully reject that commonality to our collective peril.
