View theatre details
Tensions escalate between Tate and Joanne at their mother’s hospital bedside.
As they attack each other’s smallest words and biggest choices, they are ambushed by two strangers who make a shocking claim about their grandfather’s WWII tour of duty. War is a wildly provocative, bracingly funny, and all-too-human portrait of a family navigating the landmines of the past as they try to broker peace with each other—and themselves—in the present.

Acclaimed playwright Branden Jacobs-Jenkins makes his LCT3 debut with the world premiere of War. His recent plays An Octoroon and Appropriate, which the New York Times praised as “highly entertaining, sharp, and peopled with complex characters,” were honored together with the 2014 OBIE Award for Best New American Play.  He was recently short-listed for the 2016 Pulitzer Prize in Drama for his play Gloria.

Lileana Blain-Cruz recently directed  Revolt. She Said. Revolt Again at the Soho Rep. and Red Speedo at NYTW
