Unknown Soldier
July 30 - August 9 | Nikos Stage
2015 Season
WORLD PREMIERE MUSICAL
In this haunting new musical created by writer Daniel Goldstein, Obie Award-winning composer Michael Friedman, and director Trip Cullman, Ellen Rabinowitz sets out to understand her past after she discovers an enigmatic photograph while cleaning out her deceased grandmother’s home. As she chases the truth about the soldier featured in the photo, Ellen is drawn into a tangle of historical facts and mysteries that lead her to surprising love stories and unexpected truths. Bringing together three WTF alumni, Unknown Soldier delves into memory and family mythology, asking how – or even whether – the past shows us who we are.
BEYOND THE FESTIVAL
Unknown Soldier will open Off-Broadway at Playwrights Horizons in February 2020.
