What makes a reluctant warrior?a man able to kill for his country and come out a hero? It?s a question that gets answered with remarkable poignancy in Beyond Glory. Stephen Lang examines the lives of eight men who received the Medal of Honor for their bravery in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. During the 80-minute performance Lang portrays these heroes representing different ethnic groups, social strata, and regions in a stunning tour de force performance. Terry Teachout of The Wall Street Journal says, ?Mr. Lang?s one-man play is no simple-minded piece of flag waving. It?s an unsparingly direct portrait of men at war, pushed into narrow corners, and faced with hard choices. It is also one of the richest, most complex pieces of acting I?ve seen in my theatergoing life.? Stephen Lang is best known for his portrayal of Col. Quaritch in the Avatar film series.
