ABOUT THE PLAY
War Words is a docu-play in the words of the men and women who served in the U.S. Military during the Afghanistan and Iraq wars. Based on the playwright’s interviews with veterans of the 20-year Long War and their families, War Words is composed of heroic and heartbreaking stories of the veterans, families, and allies of people who served: those who came home, and those who were left behind.
"War will break your heart…few movies or plays have ever captured all this for me as War Words."
- General David H. Petraeus, US Army (Ret.)
