A Soldier's Play Theatre Tickets

Brace yourselves for a night of mystery and suspense when you purchase A Soldier’s Play tickets. The play is set in 1944 at Fort Neal, Louisiana during a time in which the military is racially segregated. When one of the black Sergeants is murdered, an immersive mystery unfolds until the killer is caught. A bitter ending brings light to an important message, as the play embraces themes of racism, anger, and resentment. Charles Fuller wrote the brilliant play and first premiered at the Lucille Lortel Theatre in NYC, in 1981. 

The performance was originally put on by the Negro Ensemble Company as an Off-Broadway production and ran for nearly two years. The original cast was complete with star actors, such as Denzel Washington, Samuel L. Jackson, and Adolph Ceaser. Instantly, the play was a hit and won five awards. Among others, the original Off-Broadway production won the 1982 New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award for Best American Play and Outstanding New Off-Broadway Play in the 1982 Outer Critics Circle Awards.

The play was such a success that it was revived several times over the years, including in 2005 as an Off-Broadway show by Second Stage Theatre and 2020 on Broadway by the Roundabout Theater Company. The story has also been made into a successful film called A Soldier’s Story (1984), starring Adolph Ceaser, Denzel Washington, and Larry Riley.
