Colonel Arthur Brill walked into a bar in Manhattan's Grand Central Station, and the bartender, spotting his uniform, announced: "The first drink is on me." Brill was flabbergasted. That had not happened to him for years. "I'd like to see Jane Fonda and Tom Hayden take their tour today," he mused.

He wants to show us the brute cost of survival, the deep need and sustaining force of human affection in dire adversity and the taxing journey to the root core of one's identity. The play at Manhattan's New Apollo Theater achieves these ends, thanks in part to an arresting performance by Film Actor Gere (Looking for Mr. Goodbar, Yanks). Even greater thanks are due David Dukes for his extraordinarily intuitive portrayal of Horst, a man rounded up by the state for having signed a petition...
