This one-man performance is the tale of an ageless, ancient poet (Denis O'Hare, Milk). Traveling through the centuries since that ancient conflict, and doomed to tell this war story over and over, the poet finds himself in 2009, where he believes that if he can just get a roomful of people to hear him fully, the folly of war might end.
