The Cost of Truth in Theater J’s After the Revolution

HowlRound: After the Revolution, Amy Herzog’s drama, is set in New York in 1999 but obliquely and brilliantly holds a mirror up to the present. Theater J, in a riveting production, has brought After the Revolution to Washington, DC, where it is crucially needed. While the action revolves around family conflicts, the play is a meditation on government intimidation, truth-telling, and loyalty, in its various guises.
