DESCRIPTION

Written by local playwright Steve Dietz, Halcyon Days is fast-paced satire full of razor-sharp brilliance and biting comedy. Back in 1983, the U.S. invaded the tiny Caribbean nation of Grenada. Dietz takes this moment in history and tracks the corruption of language and the use of spin in warping and manipulating the truth. Skewering politics, morality and spin-doctoring, Halcyon Days brilliantly tracks the fallout of the Grenada operation to illuminate our own times. Spin the language and you may up warping your own truth.
