Both a love story and a wartime chronicle, this powerful play reveals 
the effects of the Vietnam War on a group of friends living in a small 
town in Northeast Ohio. The play opens in September of 1970, four months 
after the shootings at nearby Kent State of May 4, 1970, and months 
before the Vietnam War draft lottery of 1971. The script is based on 
Lax's novel, /The Year That Trembled/, which was also made into a 
feature film.

The young men must examine their views of war and consider the fate that 
awaits them; the young women and other townspeople face the possibility 
of losing their husbands, boyfriends and friends. Each member of the 
group embarks on a personal search that will bring very real and very 
adult conflict and pain and strip away their youthful naivete.

As the play hurtles toward life-changing consequences, the enormity of 
this war contrasted with the microcosm of one small town exposes the 
desires, the betrayals, the loves and the ability to forgive, of 
characters who are at war within themselves.
