"One of the rare gifts that theatre bestows upon us from time to time—a powerful and passionately produced piece, raising important questions about the world we live in today." - nytheatre.com

"Fresh, honestly emotional, heartbreaking, and true" - Show Showdown

Echoing the Greeks, Def Poetry and Ntozake Shange, playwright Takeo Rivera weaves a stunning ensemble exploration of war and masculinity. With the soldiers home from Iraq but wars still waging abroad, Goliath provides a way to look deeper into what we do during times of war, what behavior becomes excusable and what it means to love when violence is part of the norm.
