SYNOPSIS
The Waynesboro Players will open its season with another premier play, Tuesday Mourning. Fresh from the success of Shenandoah Moon, Duane Hahn will offer his powerful new script in honor of D-Day with original music by Richard Adams (Shenandoah Moon) and directed by Chicago director Michael Waltz.
On the morning of June 6, 1944 nineteen boys from the rural community of Bedford, Virginia died in the first bloody minutes as they hit the beaches of Normandy. Twenty-two sons from this small community eventually made the supreme sacrifice.
Six boys from Bedford tell this poignant story of growing up together, and going off to war together—the twins, the brothers, the married boy, and the leader. This is their story—full of warmth and humor and thought-provoking questions. A quaint Virginia town that went to war on Omaha Beach.
“Think not only on their passing. Remember the glory of their spirit.”
