An effective drama which uses the 2007 massacre in Nisour Square as the catalyst behind a series of choices made by a recently returned veteran and how it affects those around him. It refreshingly doesn't offer any easy answers as it analyzes how people come to terms with a war overseas through ambivalence, approval/disapproval, cynicism, guilt, and willful ignorance. Realistic and tragic, the play highlights the startling disconnect between the general population and people living in/from a war zone. You may feel as conflicted as the protagonist by the end, but you'll be better off for it.
