Oh What War
A fantasy of flagrant disobedience, Oh What War is an underground entertainment performed by a band of deserters stuck in No Man’s Land. Their scavenged video battlefield is a mash-up of mud, noise, history and song that zeroes in on the great war machine that holds us captive.
An original Juggernaut Theater production.
Oh What War played from September 10th to October 4th, 2008 in the Mainstage Theatre.
