This show was originally presented at the Heritage Repertory
Theatre of the University of Virginia, Department of Drama, and
later in association with the John F. Kennedy Center for the
Performing Arts at the Music Box Theatre in New York, on Nov.
15, 1989.
Synopsis:
A taunt, military drama in which a lackadaisical, spoiled
Navy attorney is assigned to defend a "hopeless" case
of hazing which led to the death of a young sailor in a Navy
outpost in Cuba. With the help and prodding of a serious female
JAG officer, the defense lawyer is compelled to investigate the
case. The result is a rousing courtroom battle in which the corruption
of a Marine officer is exposed and the young defense attorney
comes of age, gaining the respect of his peers.
The action takes place in various locations in Washington,
D.C., and on the Untied States Naval Base, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
The time is summer, 1986.
