Escape is an up close and personal look at the effects and consequences on the human psyche of a soldier sent into war. It is not meant to be a condemnation nor a complimentary look, but to show what an individual is forced to face within themselves to deal with the acts of violence they are committed to perform – and the violence they face themselves.

Set during the Iraq war, a deadly ambush forces PFC Dan Short and Army Medic Nora Hussein to seek refuge in a small boat on the river Tigris that takes them away from certain death into an uncertain escape. Injured and completely on their own, together they work to overcome the violent forces of man and nature opposing them from the most vulnerable position they have ever been in. They are forced to be both clever and honest while revealing their innermost character that brought them to war and how they have been changed by it.

This play is not for the meek.

An ensemble of actors play identical personnel in American and Russian ICBM launch facilities in this agitprop style dark comedy about Nuclear war. Lt. Brad Jones has written a thesis called Schrodinger’s Bomb that, using the Schrodinger’s Cat paradox as a basis, asserts that, while we all live under nuclear threat with its imperfect hair-trigger launch system, mankind is both alive and dead at the same time. At the same time a sudden onset of a conscience will not allow him to even pretend to launch a missile even during a drill. The story centers around his efforts to build up the nerve to launch the missile to force an endgame even if he has to bypass the failsafe controls by hacking into the launch control computers, and the Russian’s possible responses to launches by the Americans. In one of the abstract scenes a nuclear warhead, a globe representing the world, and a cat are put in a box. In the final scene, following an actual launch by both sides the box is opened, but the play ends without revealing what’s left inside.

This enhanced Musical version includes: Passing out the 1950's booklet "Survival Under Atomic Attack" as part of the program; at intermission we have a CD with "Songs from the Nuclear Age"; then there are 10 a capella musical numbers, the first to the tune of the classic Wizard of Oz "We're Off To Launch A Missile", through "Schrodinger's Rap", "North Dakota" (to the tune of Oklahoma), the last "The Star Spangled Elegy" and more. The play itself is filled with terrifying truths, some delivered with multimedia presentations. Hopefully the audience will leave with a greatly increased awareness of the dangers of nuclear proliferation, in a state of shock, or both.
