I watched a 2.5 hr long play by Pulitzer Prize-winner Suzan-Lori Parks "FATHER COMES HOME FROM THE WARS", and start thinking what freedom really means. During the Civil War, a slave, Hero, from West Texas to the Confederate battlefield, examined the true cost of freedom. "In the tradition of lost-in-the-woods plays, this section is profoundly philosophical in nature, exploring questions of race and power and social identity." — checked in to Round House Theatre.
