WARHEADS PB

Meer over het boek

Upon return from his first tour of Afghanistan, 19-year-old Miles isn't quite himself. Noises don't sound the same. People don't look the same. Pizza doesn't taste the same.The harder he tries to act normal, the harder it gets to be normal. And all his loved ones' attempts to help him just keep making things worse.The play oscillates between multiple timelines. We get to see glimpses of the child that was Miles Weppler before he signed up for the army, the man he's become post war, and everything that happened in-between. We get an intimate view into what motivates a young man towards the military, what motivates him to stay in the military, and why he wants to stay in the military at any cost.Through the eyes of his therapist, he's just a lost boy. Through the eyes of his girlfriend, he's a stubborn and sometimes scary man. Through the eyes of his best friend, he's paranoid. And through his not-so-best friend's eyes, Weppler's just a dick. Warheads is a punchy, urban drama based on a true story.
